Abstract
⺠We present ab initio study of covalently amino-functionalized carbon nanotubes. ⺠Relationship between size of CNT and their properties was analyzed and discussed. ⺠Binding energies, charge transfer and structural properties were calculated. ⺠The stability of amine group is favored for narrower nanotubes. ⺠The addition of NH2 group changes drastically the electronic structure of CNT.
