The structural,electronic and magnetic properties of Ag4M and Ag4MCO (M = Sc–Zn) clusters

The structures, spectra and electronic and magnetic properties of Ag₄M and Ag₄MCO (M?=?Sc–Zn) clusters have been studied using density functional theory and CALYPSO structure searching method. Structural searches show that M atoms except Zn tend to occupy the highest coordination position in the ground state Ag₄M and Ag₄MCO clusters. Carbon monoxide is most easily adsorbed on Ag atom of Ag₄Zn and M atom of other Ag₄M. Infrared and Raman spectra, photoabsorption spectra and photoelectron spectra of Ag₄M and Ag₄MCO clusters are forecasted and can be used to identify these clusters from experiment. Analysis of electronic properties indicates that the adsorption of CO on Ag₄M clusters changes the zero vibrational energy (ZPVE) and increases stability of the host clusters. Dopant atoms except for Zn improve the stability of silver cluster. The Ag₄Ni cluster shows high chemical activity and maximum adsorption energy for carbon monoxide. Magnetism calculations reveal that the magnetic moment of Ag₄M (M?=?Mn–Ni) cluster adsorbed by carbon monoxide is decreased by 2 μ_B. The change of magnetic moment makes it possible to be used as a nanomaterial for carbon monoxide detection. Simultaneously, it is found that the adsorption of CO on Ag₄Cu cluster is a physical adsorption.     

Clusters and magnetic anchoring points in (Ga,Fe)N condensed magnetic semiconductors

The stability and magnetic properties of Fe clusters in the (Ga,Fe)N magnetic semiconductor is investigated by using first-principles density functional theory and local spin density+Hubbard U theoretical methods. The present results reveal the existence of ferrimagnetic clusters formed by three or four peripheral Fe atoms neighboring a central Fe atom acting as a robust magnetic anchoring point. These clusters have magnetic moments 2 or 3 times that of a single Fe atom and, when connected by sharing peripheral Fe atoms, can form stable, ordered magnetic regions where all of the central atoms are ferromagnetically coupled. The formation of these ferrimagnetic clusters is proposed here to be at the origin of the ferromagnetic behavior observed in (Ga,Fe)N samples showing chemical phase separation.     

Theoretical study of interaction between atoms of Au, Ag, Cu and clean Si(1 1 1) surface

To evaluate the interactions between the atoms of Au, Ag and Cu and clean Si(1 1 1) surface, two types of silicon clusters Si₄H₇ and Si₁₆H₂₀ together with their metal complexes were studied by using hybrid (U)B3LYP density functional theory method. Optimized geometries and energies on different adsorption sites indicate that: (1) the binding energies at different adsorption sites are large (ranging from 1.2 to 2.6 eV depend on the metal atoms and adsorption sites), suggesting a strong interaction between metal atom and silicon surface; (2) the most favorable adsorption site is the on top (T) site. Mulliken population analysis indicated that in the system of on top (T) site, a covalent bond is formed between metal atom and dangling bond of surface Si atom.

Fe clusters on Ni and Cu: size and shape dependence of the spin moment

We present ab-initio calculations of the electronic structure of small Fe clusters (1–9 atoms) on Ni(001), Ni(111), Cu(001) and Cu(111) surfaces. Our focus is on the spin moments and their dependence on cluster size and shape. We derive a simple quantitative rule that relates the moment of each Fe atom linearly to its coordination number. Thus, for an arbitrary Fe cluster the spin moment of the cluster and of the individual Fe atoms can be readily found if the positions of the atoms are known. PACS 75.75.+a; 75.70.-i; 73.22.-f

基于广义梯度近似密度泛函和全势能线性缀加平面波方法,本文对聚铜络合物[Cu(L)μ-1,3-N3]n(ClO4)n(其中L=tridentate Schiff base为三齿席夫基)的态密度和磁矩进行了计算.磁矩计算结果表明:①该聚铜络合物晶体格子的总磁矩为1.00 μB;②中心铜原子(离子)具有最大的原子磁矩,为0.531 μB;③铜原子和它周围最邻近的氮原子的原子磁矩是该聚铜络合物晶体格子总磁矩的主要来源.通过对中心铜原子及其最邻近氮原子的自旋态密度图进行分析,得出了铜原子和它周围最邻近氮原子的磁性主要分别来源于它们的d轨道和p轨道,同时还发现了中心铜离子的d轨道与叠氮末端氮原子的p轨道之间存在杂化现象, 以及中心铜离子向叠氮末端氮原子的自旋退局域化现象.自旋退局域化效应通过叠氮这一旁道使相邻两中心铜离子发生铁磁性相互作用.     

All-electron relativistic calculation on Au5X (X = Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu and Zn) clusters

All-electron scalar relativistic calculations on Au₅X (X = Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu and Zn) clusters have been performed by using density functional theory with the generalized gradient approximation. Our calculation results indicate that all the lowest energy geometries of Au₅X clusters have planar structures; the doped X atoms prefer to occupy the fourfold coordination site. Except Au₅Fe, Au₅Co and Au₅Zn, for other clusters including pure Au₆ cluster, the HOMO are delocalized obviously with a contribution from all atoms in the cluster. On the contrary, the electron localization in Au₅Zn is very strong resulting in the least stability of this cluster. Au₅Cu cluster with six delocalized electrons being defined as magic number for two-dimensional system has the largest VIP and deepest HOMO energy level. With the substitution Au for X atoms, the metallicity of all Au₅X clusters is reinforced.     

Theoretical investigation of CO adsorption on TM-doped (MgO)12 (TM = Ni, Pd, Pt) nanotubes

CO adsorption on TM-doped magnesia nanotubes (TM = Ni, Pd and Pt) have been studied by using density functional theory. Our calculation results show that CO favors adsorption on TM-doped magnesia nanotubes in the form of C atom bonding with TM atom. Fukui indices analysis clearly exhibits that doping of impurity TM atom allows for a noticeably enhancement of nucleophilic reactivity ability of magnesia nanotube. The adsorption energies demonstrate that CO molecule is more strongly bound on the 3-fold TM atoms than the 4-fold TM atoms. This finding is well confirmed by TM-C bond length, charge transfer and C-O vibrational frequency. The high adsorption energy of 2.55 eV is found when CO adsorbs on 3-fold Pt in Pt-doped magnesia nanotubes, implying the kind of the doping TM atom has a significant influence on the chemical reactivity.
