We have investigated the electronic and optical properties of AlN hexagonal nanosheets under different kinds of strains, using the band structure results obtained through the full potential linearized augmented plane wave method within the density functional theory. The results show that 10% uniaxial strain along the zig-zag direction induces an indirect to direct band-gap transition. Th...

Compound (N,N-bis (salicylidene) 1,2-diaminophenylene) was prepared by condensation of ethanolsolution of 2-Hydroxybanzaldehyde and 1,2-diaminophenylene. The compound was characterized by1H NMR, infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) data and analytical data. The geometrical parameters andenergies have been obtained from Density Functional Theory (DFT) B3LYP method and Hartree-Fock (HF) method with 3-21...

 First principle calculations of nanolayered ZnO polymorphs (Wurzite–, Zincblende–, Rocksalt–structures) in the scheme of density functional theory were performedwith the help of full potential linear augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) method. Theexchange - correlation potential is described by generalized gradient approximation asproposed by Perdew–Burke–Ernzrhof (GGA–PBE) and modified Becke–Johns...

we have investigated the electronic structure and thermodynamic properties of supercell of the
-al2o3 by first-principles calculation in framework of density functional theory (dft) and full potential linearized augmented plane wave (fp-lapw) with generalized gradient approximation (gga) and by quasi-harmonic debye model. our calculated value for direct band gap of α-al2o3 is 7.2 ev which is v...

objective(s): adsorption of immucillin-a (bcx4430) molecule on the pristine and n-doped tio2 anatase nanoparticles were studied using the density functional theory (dft) calculations. the adsorption energy analysis indicated that tio2+immucillin-a complexes including oc-substituted tio2 have higher adsorption energy than the complexes with ot substituted tio2, thus providing more stable configu...

we have performed density functional theory investigations on the adsorption properties of ammonia molecule on the undoped and n-doped tio2 anatase nanoparticles. we have geometrically optimized the constructed undoped and n-doped nanoparticles in order to fully understand the adsorption behaviors of ammonia molecule. for tio2 anatase nanoparticles, the binding site is preferentially located on...

in this research, structural and electronic properties of zncdn-1ten clusters (n=1-10) have been studied by formalism of density functional theory and using the projector augmented wave within local density approximation. the structural properties (such as bond length/angle and coordination number), electronic and optical properties (such as binding energy, kohn-sham spectrum and partial charge...
