The systemic study of the electronic properties of different transition metals (TMs-Sc, Ti, Fe, Co, Ni, Zn, Ag and Au) adsorbed in the surface of graphene was done with the aid of self-consistent charge density functional based tight binding method. Results show that the Silver metal adsorbed in the...
