چکیده

Quantum defect theory is applied to (time-dependent) density-functional calculations of Rydberg series for closed shell atoms: He, Be, and Ne. The performance and behavior of such calculations are much better quantified and understood in terms of the quantum defect rather than transition energies.

Time-dependent analysis of carrier density and potential energy in spherical centered defect InGaAs/AlGaAs quantum dot (SCDQD)

Interaction and correlation effects in quantum dots play a fundamental role in defining both their equilibrium and transport properties. Numerical methods are commonly employed to study such systems. In this paper we investigate the numerical calculation of quantum transport of electrons in spherical centered defect InGaAs/AlGaAs quantum dot (SCDQD). The simulation is based on the imaginary time...

A new challenge for time-dependent density-functional theory

Time-dependent density functional theory is thought to work well for the test cases of He and Be atoms. We perform a quantum defect analysis of the s, p, and d Rydberg states of Be with accurate ground state Kohn-Sham potentials. The s and p-quantum defects are well described by the ALDA, but fails badly for the d-quantum defect. The same failure is observed in case of He. This provides a new c...

Structural Characteristics and Reactivity Relationship of some Thiophene Derivatives

ABSTRACT The application of many hetero-aromatic compounds in pharmaceutical and dye industries make the theoretical study of their dipole moment (µ) oscillator strength (f) and other photo-physical properties worthwhile. These properties determine the solubility of many compounds; predict the relationship between their structures, properties and performance. The f, µ, α, transition dipole mome...

Hydrogen Adsorption on (5,0) and (3,3) Na-decorated BNNTs

The storage capacity of hydrogen on Na-decorated born nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) is investigated by using density functional theory within Quantum Espresso and Gaussian 09. The results obtained predict that a single Na atom tends to occupy above the central region of the hexagonal rings in (5,0) and (3,3) BNNT structures with a binding energy of -2.67 and -4.28 eV/Na-atom respectively. When a si...
