Graphical abstractFigure: Total DOS for Na on the H-site of graphene and for isolated graphene (Spin-up and spin-down) .The energy is relative to EF of the Na-graphene system. Summary The adsorption energy, geometry, charge transfer, ionisation potential and density of states (DOS) and PDOS of adatom/ dimer - graphene system have been calculated using SIESTA package [1] which works within a DFT(density functional theory)-GGA (generalized gradient approximation) pseudopotential framework. Preferred site for adsorption of a sodium atom on graphene is the hollow site. For the Na dimer adsorption, we found that horizontal orientation is favored over the vertical one. From DOS plots, it is clear that graphene's states are nearly unaffected by the adsorption of Na adatom and Interaction between sodium and graphene is predominantly ionic
