Detecting and analyzing the decomposed components of SF6 is one of the important methods to realize the on-line monitoring of GIS equipment. In this paper, considering the performance limits of intrinsic TiO2 nanotube gas sensor, the adsorption process of H2S, SO2, SOF2 and SO2F2 on fluoride-doped TiO2 crystal plane was simulated by the first-principle method. The adsorption mechanism of these SF6 decomposition components on fluorine-doped TiO2 crystal plane was analyzed from a micro perspective. Calculation results indicate that the order of adsorption effect of four SF6 decomposition components on fluoride-doped TiO2 crystal plane is H2S &gt; SO2 &gt; SOF2 &gt; SO2F2. Compared with the adsorption results of intrinsic anatase TiO2 (101) perfect crystal plane, fluorine doping can obviously enhance the adsorption ability of TiO2 (101) crystal plane. Fluorine-doped TiO2 can effectively distinguish and detect the SF6 decomposition components based on theoretical analysis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s17081907","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,8,21]],"date-time":"2017-08-21T04:12:17Z","timestamp":1503288737000},"page":"1907","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":22,"title":["A DFT Calculation of Fluoride-Doped TiO2 Nanotubes for Detecting SF6 Decomposition Components"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"17","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5872-2039","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Xiaoxing","family":"Zhang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Power Transmission Equipment & System Security and New Technology, Chongqing University, Chongqing 400044, China"},{"name":"School of Electrical Engineering, Wuhan University, Wuhan 430072, China"}]},{"given":"Jun","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Power Transmission Equipment & System Security and New Technology, Chongqing University, Chongqing 400044, China"}]},{"given":"Xingchen","family":"Dong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Power Transmission Equipment & System Security and New Technology, Chongqing University, Chongqing 400044, China"}]},{"given":"Hao","family":"Cui","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Power Transmission Equipment & System Security and New Technology, Chongqing University, Chongqing 400044, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,8,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"995","DOI":"10.1109\/TDEI.2014.6832242","article-title":"Decomposition characteristics of SF6 under thermal fault for temperatures below 400 \u00b0C","volume":"21","author":"Zeng","year":"2014","journal-title":"IEEE Trans.
