AbstractUsing density-functional theory, we investigate the electronic, magnetic, and hyperfine-interaction properties of the 112-type iron-pnictide compound $${\hbox {EuFeAs}}_2$$ EuFeAs 2 , which is isostructural to the high-temperature iron-based superconductor $${\hbox {Ca}}_{1-x}{\hbox {La}}_x{\hbox {FeAs}}_2$$ Ca 1 - x La x FeAs 2 . We show that the band structure of $${\hbox {EuFeAs}}_2$$ EuFeAs 2 is similar to that of the 112-type compounds’ family, with hole-like and electron-like bands at the Brillouin-zone center and corners, respectively. We demonstrate that the bands near the Fermi level originate mainly from the Fe atoms. The presence of a mixture of ionic and covalent bonding is predicted from the charge-density and atom-resolved density-of-states calculations. There is good agreement between the calculated hyperfine-interaction parameters with those obtained from the $$^{57}$$ 57 Fe and $$^{151}$$ 151 Eu Mössbauer measurements. The spatial distribution of atoms in $${\hbox {EuFeAs}}_2$$ EuFeAs 2 leads to an in-plane 2D magnetism. Moreover, ab-initio calculations predict the compound’s magnetic moment and the magnetic moments of each constituent atom. Also, the density of states profile provides insight into the relative magnitude of these moments. Electronic structure calculations and Fermi surface topology reveal various physical and chemical properties of $${\hbox {EuFeAs}}_2$$ EuFeAs 2 . Valence electron density maps indicate the co-existence of a wide range of chemical bonds in this system, and based on structural properties, the transport characteristics are deduced and discussed. A thorough analysis of the atomic structure of $${\hbox {EuFeAs}}_2$$ EuFeAs 2 and its role in the bond formation is presented.

The influence of copper(I) halides CuX (X = Cl, Br, I) on the electronic structure of N,N′-diisopropylcarbodiimide (DICDI) and N,N′-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) was investigated by means of computational DFT (density functional theory) methods. The coordination of the considered carbodiimides occurs by one of the nitrogen atoms, with the formation of linear complexes having a general formula of [CuX(carbodiimide)]. Besides varying the carbon–nitrogen bond lengths, the thermodynamically favourable interaction with Cu(I) reduces the electron density on the carbodiimides and alters the energies of the (NCN)-centred, unoccupied orbitals. A small dependence of these effects on the choice of the halide was observable. The computed Fukui functions suggested negligible interaction of Cu(I) with incoming nucleophiles, and the reactivity of carbodiimides was altered by coordination mainly because of the increased electrophilicity of the {NCN} fragments.

Electronic structure and optical properties of non-metals (N, S, F, P, Cl) -doped cubic NaTaO3 were investigated systematically by density functional theory (DFT). The results showed that the substitution of (N, S, P, Cl) for O in NaTaO3 was effective in narrowing the band-gap relative to the F-doped NaTaO3. The larger red shift of the absorption edge and the higher visible light absorption at about 520 nm were found for the (N and P)-doped NaTaO3. The excitation from the impurity states to the conduction band may account for the red shift of the absorption edge in an electron-deficiency non-metal doped NaTaO3. The obvious absorption in the visible light region for (N and P)-doped NaTaO3 provides an important guidance for the design and preparation of the visible light photoactive materials.
