Abstract
The magnetic and structural properties of the (8, 0) BN nanotubes with transition metals (TM) of Fe, Co, or Ni substitution for B or N were investigated using a first-principles calculation. It was found that TM substitution makes the cross section being distorted and the bond length TM-B or TM-N being longer than that of the original B-N one. The magnetic moment is larger for the TM substitution for B than one for N, and it is mainly due to the 3d electrons of TM atoms.
