Density-functional theory of thermoelectric phenomena.
We introduce a nonequilibrium density-functional theory of local temperature and associated local energy density that is suited for the study of thermoelectric phenomena. The theory rests on a local temperature field coupled to the energy-density operator. We identify the excess-energy density, in addition to the particle density, as the basic variable, which is reproduced by an effective nonin...
متن کاملEvaluation of C60 nano-structure performance as nano-carriers of procarbazine anti-cancer drug using density functional theory methods
The study examined surface adsorption of fullerene C60 with anticancer drug procarbazine in gas and solvent (water) phases using the DFT method. In doing so, the structure of the procarbazine, fullerene and their derivatives were first geometrically optimized in three different configurations with a base set of 6-31 g * and B3LYP hybrid functions. Then, IR calculations, frontier molecular orbit...
متن کاملA Density Functional Theory Study of Structure of Phosphonic Acid
The molecular structure of the stable conformation of phosphonic acid in gas phase has beencomputed by employing complete geometry optimization in Density Functional Theory(DFT) methods. The methods used for calculations are B3LYP, BP86 and B3PW91 that havebeen studied in two series of basis sets: D95** and 6-31+G(d,p) for hydrogen and oxygenatoms; LANL2DZ for phosphorus. Bond lengths and angle...
متن کاملSynthesis and Characterization of Bi2Se3 Thermoelectric Nanopowders
In order to synthesize Bi2Se3 nanopowders by a solvothermal synthesis method, ethylenediamine, dimethylformamide, acetone, absolute ethanol, and deionized water were respectively used as a solvent, using BiCl3 and elemental Se powders as starting materials and KBH4 as a reductant at 180 C for different times. X-ray diffraction was used for examining the phase composition of the products. The re...
متن کاملInvestigation of Nickle nanoclusters properties by density functional theory
Clusters play important role for understanding and transferring microscopic to macroscopic properties.Geometric and electron properties of Small nickel clusters up to the tetramer has been investigated by Density Functional Theory (DFT). Raising the number of nickel clusters atoms were indicated decreasing the average equilibrium (Ni-Ni) distance of atoms and also the binding energy of per atom...
