The structural and electronic properties of Li, Mg and Al deposited ZnO nanocages and their effects on the adsorption of formaldehyde molecule have been investigated using the density functional theory (DFT) computations. To understand the behavior of the adsorbed CH2O molecule on the ZnO nanocage, results of DFT calculations of the M-deposited nanocages (M=Li, Mg and Al), as well as complex systems consisting of the adsorbed CH2O molecule on M-deposited ZnO nanocage were reported. The results presented include adsorption energies, bond lengths, electronic configurations, density of states and molecular orbitals. It was found that, the most energetically stable adsorption configurations of CH2O molecule on the bare ZnO leads to 12% dilation in C=O bond length of CH2O and 14% decrease in HOMO-LUMO gap of ZnO cluster. The most energetically stable adsorption configurations of CH2O molecule on Li, Mg and Al-deposited ZnO lead to 4%, 4% and 11% dilation in C=O bond length of CH2O and-0.66, -45 and , +66% change in HOMO-LUMO gap of ZnO nanocages, respectively. The interaction between CH2O with bare ZnO and M-deposited ZnO nanocages is attributed to charge transfer mechanism. These results may be meaningful for CH2O degradation and detection.

Based on MoC2 nanoribbons and poly-(terphenylene-butadiynylene) (PTB) molecules, we designed MoC2-PTB molecular spintronic devices and investigated their spin-dependent electron transport properties by using spin-polarized density functional theory and non-equilibrium Green's...

AbstractA density-functional theory based nonorthogonal tight-binding scheme is used to investigate the nonpolar surfaces of GaN in the wurtzite and zinc-blende phases. In III-V semiconductors the nonpolar surfaces mainly reconstruct by a bond-length conserving rotation of the surface atoms. In contrast to that for all nonpolar GaN surfaces this bond-length is shortened by ≈3 − 4%. We furthermore find the rotation angle to be significantly smaller than could be expected from results for GaAs and GaP.

Abstract Molecular orbital calculations were performed for the six saturated alkylamines (CH3NH2 , (CH3)2 NH, (CH 3)3 N, CH 3CH2NH2 , (CH3)2 CHNH2 , (CH3)3 CNH2), their protonated cations (CH3NH3 + , (CH3)2NH2 + , (CH3)3NH + , CH3CH2NH3 + , (CH3)2CHNH3 + , (CH3)3CNH3+), and (CH3)4 N + using the Hartree-Fock, second-order M0ller-Plesset, and density functional theory methods with the 6-311+G(d,p) basis set. Protonation lengthens the C-N bonds of the amines by 0.05 -0.08 Å and shortens the C-C bonds of CH3CH2NH2, (CH3)2CHNH2 , and (CH3)3CNH2 by ca. 0.01 Å.

The bond length between the C atom in CO2 and O atom in CaO was about 1.39–1.42 Å, and the bond length of C–O in adsorbed CO2 was prolonged to 1.26–1.27 Å, while the O–C–O angle of adsorbed CO2 was about 129°.

A series of n-acene–graphene (n = 3, 4, 5, 6) devices, in which n-acene molecules are sandwiched between two zigzag graphene nanoribbon (ZGNR) electrodes, are modeled through the spin polarized density functional theory combined with the non-equilibrium Green's function technique.
