the structure of fluids confined by planar walls is studied using density functional theory. the density functional used is a generalized form of the hypernetted chain (hnc) functional which contains a term third order in the density. this term is chosen to ensure that the modified density functional gives the correct bulk pressure. the proposed density functional applied to a lennard-jones flu...

Employing the spin degree of freedom of charge carriers offers the possibility to extend the functionality of conventional electronic devices, while colloidal chemistry can be used to synthesize inexpensive and tunable nanomaterials. Here, in order to benefit from both concepts, we investigate Rashba spin-orbit interaction in colloidal lead sulphide nanosheets by electrical measurements on the ...

The electronic structure, Non-Linear Optical (NLO) properties and Natural Bonding Orbital (NBO) analysis of 1,4-dioxane were investigated using the theoretical study of Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations at the B3LYP/6-311G (d,p) level of theory. The optimized structure is nonlinear as indicated from the dihedral angles.  Natural bonding orbital analysis has been analyzed in terms...

the density functional theory (dft) and the natural bond orbital (nbo) calculations basedmethod b3lyp/6-31g* were carried out to study the interaction of carbon nanotube (8,0) withnitrobenzene in two situations perpendicular and parallel. formation energies of compounds,charges, the highest occupied molecular orbital (homo) and the lowest unoccupied molecular'orbital (lumo) and the homo-lumo ba...

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...

Ladder-type polymers, obtained by small modifications of the atomic structure of ladder-type polythiophene, are studied using density-functional theory calculations. Within the local-density and GW approximations, it is found that upon a simple substitution of the sulfur atoms by nitrogen and boron atoms, the band structure of the resulting polymer exhibits band overlap between the occupied and...
