in this research dft/b3lyp method has been employed to investigate the geometrical structures,relative stabilities, and electronic properties of cun (n=3–10) clusters for clarifying the effect of sizeon the properties. through a careful analysis of the successive binding energies, second-orderdifference of energy and the highest occupied-lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy gaps as afunct...

separation and capture of carbon dioxide from the flue gas of power plants in order to reduceenvironmental damages has always been of interest to researchers. in this study, aqueous solution ofmethylamine was used as an absorbent for co2 capture. in order to study this reaction, densityfunctional theory (dft) was employed at the level of b3lyp/6-311++g(d,p) by using theconductor-like polarizabl...

in this work, the structural and electronic properties of folic acid molecule on functionalized (7,0)zigzag single-walled carbon nanotube was studied in gas phase on the basis of density functionaltheory (dft). furthermore, covalent interaction of folic acid with single-walled carbon nanotube wasinvestigated and its quantum molecular descriptors and binding energies were calculated. the dftb3ly...

adsorption of no2 molecule on pristine and n-doped tio2 anatase nanoparticles have been studied using the density functional theory (dft) technique. the structural properties (such as bond lengths and bond angles) and the electronic properties (such as density of states, band structures and atomic partial charges) have been computed for considered nanoparticles. the results show that, the adsor...

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...

we have investigated structure and electronic properties of au and si liner chains using the firstprinciplesplane wave pseudopotential method. the transport properties and conductance of these twoliner chains are studied using landauer approaches based on density functional theory (dft). weobtain density of states and band gap using kohn-sham and wannier functions as well as quantumconductivity...

graphyne and graphdiyne families of flat carbon (sp2/sp) networks with high degrees of π-conjunction are attracting much attention due to their promising electronic, optical, and mechanical properties. in the present investigation we have studied the structural, mechanical, electrical and optical properties of halogenated graphdiyne and graphyne. the optical spectra of pure and halogenated stru...
