The article «Effect of hydrogen functionalization on the atomic and electronic structures of carbon nanotori» by the authors of O.E. Glukhova, I.A. Kupriyanov, I.N. Saliy and M.M. Slepchenkov is devoted to the theoretical prediction of the results of the hydrogen functionalization effect on the atomic structure and electronic properties of carbon nanotori. As the research tools we used tight binding method in modification of Glukhova and the original method for calculation of atomic grid local stresses of nanostructures. The objects of the investigation were representatives of the D5d point symmetry group of carbon nanotori. In this work we solve some scientific problems. One of them was to identify the most energetically favorable landing sites of hydrogen atoms on the surface of carbon nanotori. Another - in the establishment of laws control of electron and energy characteristics of nanotori in the process of hydrogen functionalization. Based on the obtained results we formulated the perspectives of hydrogen functionalized carbon nanotori in emission electronics and radio-electronic applications.
