Adsorption of large hydrocarbons on coinage metals: a van der Waals density functional study.
The adsorption of organic molecules onto the close-packed facets of coinage metals is studied, and how accurately adsorption heights can be described by using recent advances of the van der Waals density functional (vdWDF), with optPBE/vdWDF, optB86b/vdWDF, vdWDF2, and rev/vdWDF2 functionals is illustrated. The adsorption of two prototypical aromatic hydrocarbons is investigated, and the calcul...
متن کاملA van der Waals density functional study of chloroform and other trihalomethanes on graphene.
A computational study of chloroform (CHCl(3)) and other trihalomethanes (THMs) adsorbed on graphene is presented. The study uses the van der Waals density functional method to obtain adsorption energies and adsorption structures for these molecules of environmental concern. In this study, chloroform is found to adsorb with the H atom pointing away from graphene, with adsorption energy 357 meV (...
متن کاملVanadium pentoxide (V2O5): A van der Waals density functional study
Density Functional Theory (DFT) is one of the most reliable and widespread methods for the study of structure and electronic properties of materials through computers. The theory is exact in principle but for practical purposes an approximation for the exchange-correlation energy a small but crucial part of the total energy must be used. The most widely used approximations go under the name of ...
متن کاملDesorption of n-alkanes from graphene: a van der Waals density functional study.
A recent study of temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) measurements of small linear alkane molecules (n-alkanes, with formula C(N)H(2N+2)) from C(0001) deposited on Pt(111) shows a linear relationship of the desorption energy with increasing n-alkane chain length N. We here present a van der Waals density functional study of the desorption barrier energy of the ten smallest n-alkanes (of car...
متن کاملVan der Waals density functional for layered structures.
To understand sparse systems, we must account for both strong local atom bonds and weak nonlocal van der Waals forces between atoms separated by empty space. A fully nonlocal functional form [Phys. Rev. B 62, 6997 (2000)]] of density-functional theory (DFT) is applied here to the layered systems graphite, boron nitride, and molybdenum sulfide to compute bond lengths, binding energies, and compr...
