Enhancing the energetic and magnetic stability of atomic hydrogen chemisorbed on graphene using (non)compensated B–N pairs† In this pioneering study for identifying atomic scale magnetic moment, a single hydrogen atom chemisorbed on pristine graphene exhibits distinct spin polarization. Using first-principles calculations and analyses, we demonstrate that the binding between a H adsorbate and a C substrate is substantially enhanced via compensated B–N pairs embedded into graphene.
