Abstract
⺠Contrasting binding preferences observed for alkali and alkaline earth metal ions. ⺠Alkali metal ions prefer armchair and alkaline earth metal ions prefer zigzag CNTs. ⺠Graphene exhibits stronger binding affinity for metal ions. ⺠HOMO-LUMO energy gap of the CNTs can be fine tuned through metal ion binding.
