چکیده
From an interplay of high-resolution STM imaging/manipulation and DFT calculations, we have revealed that different self-assembled nanostructures of BA molecules on Cu(110) are attributable to specific molecular adsorption geometries, and thus the corresponding intermolecular hydrogen bonding patterns. The STM manipulations demonstrate the feasibility of switching such weak-hydrogen-bonding patterns.

Engineering Nano-aggregates: β-Cyclodextrin Facilitates the Thiol-Gold Nanoparticle Self-Assembly
The structure and morphology of nonmaterial formed by colloidal synthesis represent a subject of interest as it is a factor deciding the physicochemical properties and biological applications of nanostructures. Among various nanoparticles, gold can develop fractal assembled patterns. Herein, we report a nano-aggregate of a thiol-on-gold self-assembled structure and the influence of β-cyclodextr...
متن کاملRole of the dispersion force in modeling the interfacial properties of molecule-metal interfaces: adsorption of thiophene on copper surfaces
We present density functional theory calculations of the geometry, adsorption energy and electronic structure of thiophene adsorbed on Cu(111), Cu(110) and Cu(100) surfaces. Our calculations employ dispersion corrections and self-consistent van der Waals density functionals (vdW-DFs). In terms of speed and accuracy, we find that the dispersion-energy-corrected Revised Perdue-Burke-Enzerhof (RPB...
متن کاملA first-principles density functional study of chlorophenol adsorption on Cu2O(110):CuO.
First-principles density functional theory and a periodic-slab model have been employed to explore the adsorption of a two-chlorophenol molecule on a Cu(2)O(110) surface containing surface Cu-O bonds, namely, the Cu(2)O(110):CuO surface. The two-chlorophenol molecule is found to interact very weakly with the Cu(2)O(110):CuO surface, forming several vertical and flat orientations. These weakly b...
متن کاملAdsorption of benzene, fluorobenzene and meta-di-fluorobenzene on Cu(110): A computational study
We modelled the adsorption of benzene, fluorobenzene and meta-di-fluorobenzene on Cu(110) by Density Functional Theory. We found that the adsorption configuration depends on the coverage. At high coverage, benzene assumes a tilted position, while at low coverage a horizontal slightly distorted geometry is favoured. Functionalizing the benzene ring with one or two fluorine atoms weakens the bond...

In this study, the structures, the IR spectroscopy, and the electronic properties of AunCum (n+m≤5) bimetallic clusters were studied and compared with those of pure gold and copper clusters using the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) and exchange correlation density functional theory (DFT). The study of an O2-AunCum system is important to identify the promotion effects of each of the two...
