The heterofullerenes C59X (X = B, N, Al, Si, P, Ga, Ge, and As) were investigated by quantum chemistry calculations based on density functional theory. These hybrid cages can be seen as doping the buckminsterfullerene by heteroatom substitution. The geometrical structures, relative stabilities, electronic properties, vibrational frequencies, dielectric constants, and aromaticities of the doped cages were studied systemically and compared with those of the pristine C60cage. It is found that the doped cages with different heteroatoms exhibit various electronic, vibrational, and aromatic properties. These results imply the possibility to modulate the physical properties of these fullerene-based materials by tuning substitution elements.

The structure and relative energies of the tautomers of 5-methylcytosine in the gasphase and in different solvents are predicted using MP2 and density functional theory methods. The order of stability for these tautomers is C3>C1>C2>C4>C5>C6 calculated by MP2 and C1>C3>C2>C4>C5>C6 calculated by the B3LYP method. Relative energy calculations are performed in wide range of solvent dielectrics and in all solvents the oxo-amino C1 is predicted as the most stable tautomer. The infrared spectra of two dominant tautomers are calculated in the gas phase using HF and density functional theory. Good agreement between calculated (DFT) and experimental harmonic vibrational frequencies is found.

The density functional theory calculations are applied for C20 cage fullerenes. Furan, pyrole, and phenylvinyle monomers are made to interact with a C20 cage at the same C position. An electric field was applied with varying strength. Computations were carried out for all cases at the B3LYP/6-31G* level. The structure, energetic, and relative stabilities of the compounds were compared with each other and analyzed. In addition, the electric field dependent and independent electronic transition spectra of the proposed stable neutral C20 cage are investigated.

ABSTRACTRelative stabilities and electronic structure of graphene/h-BN superlattices are discussed in the framework of the density functional theory. Most importantly, relative stabilities between commensurate and incommensurate superlattices are studied. Commensurate graphene/h-BN monolayer superlattices are found to be definitely more stable than incommensurate superlattices. In graphene/h-BN bilayer superlattices, commensurate superlattices are found to be slightly more stable than incommensurate superlattices. Results also imply that a finite pressure can induce transition from an incommensurate superlattice to a commensurate superlattice.
