AbstractBonding of chromium to the polyimide, PMDA-ODA, surface is still subject to debate. In an attempt to clarify this problem, we have performed density functional theory calculations on a model molecule, phthalimide, which contains the most reactive functionalities of the polyimide PMDA part. Considering only the low spin case, we find that chromium bonds preferentially to the phenyl ring. However, when we release the spin polarisation and optimise the structure, we find that the absolute stable configuration is that of chromium in a quintet state at a carbonyl group. The energy difference is 0.30 eV. The complete optimised structures are determined. The infrared spectrum have been calculated for phthalimide and compared to experimental spectra. The agreement is excellent. A vibrational analysis for the Cr/phthalimide system, in both configurations (Cr on C=O and Cr on phenyl), in their stable spin states, is presented.

Organic π-conjugated polymers with a triplet ground state have been the focus of recent research for their interesting and unique electronic properties, arising from the presence of the two unpaired electrons. These polymers are usually built from alternating electron-donating and electron-accepting monomer pairs which lower the HOMO-LUMO gap and yield a triplet state instead of the typical singlet ground state. In this paper we use density functional theory calculations to explore the design rules that govern the creation of a ground state triplet conjugated polymer, and find that a small HOMO-LUMO gap in the singlet state is the best predictor for the existence of a triplet ground state, compared to previous use of pro-quinoidal character. This work can accelerate the discovery of new stable triplet materials by reducing the computa- tional resources needed for electronic-state calculations and the number of potential candidates for synthesis.
