摘要
We study graphene nanoribbons and carbon nanotubes with divacancies, i.e., local defects composed of one octagon and a pair of pentagons. We show that the presence of divacancies leads to the appearance of gap states, which may act as acceptor or donor states. We explain the origin of those defect-localized states and prove that they are directly related to the zero-energy states of carbon ring forming the octagonal topological defect.
