Electronic structure and bandgap of γ-Al2O3 compound using mBJ exchange potential
γ-Al2O3 is a porous metal oxide and described as a defective spinel with some cationic vacancies. In this work, we calculate the electronic density of states and band structure for the bulk of this material. The calculations are performed within the density functional theory using the full potential augmented plan waves plus local orbital method, as embodied in the WIEN2k code. We show that the...
متن کاملFirst principles study on structural, phase transition and electronic structure of Zinc Sulfide (ZnS) within LDA, GGA and mBJ potential
An ab-initio calculation based on full potential linearised augmented plane wave method of density functional theory (DFT) within the localised density approximation (LDA), generalised gradient approximation (GGA) and modified Becke-Johnson (mBJ) for exchange correlation potential is performed to investigate the structural, phase transition and electronic structure of Zinc Sulfide (ZnS). A comp...
متن کاملInvestigation of the Activity of Nano Structure Mn/γ-Al2O3 Catalyst for Combustion of 2-Propanol
This paper reports results of a study regarding the activities of nano structure Mn/γ-Al2O3 and γ-Al2O3 catalysts for oxidation of 2-propanol (as a model of volatile organic compound). Nanostructure of catalysts was revealed using XRD, SEM and TEM techniques. Catalytic studies were carried out in U-shaped packed bed reactor under atmospheric pressure and at the reaction temperature of 150- 500°...
متن کاملPreparation of γ-Al2O3 and Prioritization of Affecting Factors on the Crystallite Size Using Taguchi Method
In this work, boehmite sol was prepared by a previously applied and validated method; hydrolysis of aluminum chloride hexa-hydrate. In order to obtain precise results, the effect of pH after adding precipitating agent, aging time, peptizing temperature and ultrasonic vibration time on the crystallite size of final precipitate were investigated in a narrow range. The preparation conditions appli...
متن کامل"Physical properties and electronic structure of LaNi5 compound before and after hydrogenation: An experimental and theoretical approach"
The present study deals with the experimental and theoretical approaches of LaNi5 hydrogen storage alloy. The structural, morphological and hydrogenation characterization of this sample which is synthesized by the arc melting technique were carried out by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and a homemade Sievert's type apparatus, respectively. The results showed that after several ...
