“…With this, we have a six-band tight-binding Hamiltonian, given by
where t̃ and , respectively, refer to the hopping and on-site energy between the gas molecule and host boron atom. To find t̃ , we use 43,44
where d is the distance between molecule and borophene sheet and t̄ is the average of other hopping energies on each atom. For example, for the adsorption on {a,e} atoms, we have
or on c atoms, it is
