Theoretical Studies on Structural and Spectroscopic Properties of Photoelectrochemical Cell Ruthenium Sensitizers-the Derivatives of N3

A series of dye molecules was designed theoretically. Particularly, azoles and their derivatives were chosen as the modifying groups linking to ancillary ligands of [Ru(dcbpyH₂)₂(NCS)₂](N3, dcbpy=4,4′-dicarboxy- 2,2′-bipyridine; NCS=thiocyanato). Density functional theory(DFT) based approaches were applied to exploring the electronic structures and properties of all these systems. The dye molecule with 1,2,4-triazole groups which exhibits a very high intensity of absorption in visible region, was obtained. Time-dependent DFT(TD-DFT) results indicate that the ancillary ligand dominates the molecular orbital(MO) energy levels and masters the absorption transition nature to a certain extent. The deprotonation of anchoring ligand not only affects the frontier MO energy levels but also controls the energy gaps of the highest occupied MO(HOMO) to the lowest unoccupied MO(LUMO) and LUMO to LUMO+1 orbital. If the gap between LUMO-LUMO+1 is small enough, the higher efficiency of dye-sensitized solar cell(DSSC) should be expected.

Cu_3B_2O_6/CuB_2O_4单晶的制备及其可见光催化降解亚甲基蓝

以醋酸铜/硝酸铜和硼酸为原料,柠檬酸作发泡剂,采用溶胶-凝胶法制得了高纯度的单晶结构硼酸铜(Cu3B2O6/CuB2O4).利用X射线衍射(XRD)、扫描电镜(SEM)、高分辨率透射电镜(HRTEM)、热重-差热分析(TGDTA)等对样品进行了表征,并考察了Cu3B2O6/CuB2O4在可见光(400 nmλ1100 nm)下对亚甲基蓝(MB)溶液的催化降解性能.结果表明,两种结构的硼酸铜都具有良好的光催化性能.当亚甲基蓝的初始浓度为50 mg·L-1,催化剂用量为1 g·L-1,光照6 h后,CuB2O4对亚甲基蓝的光催化降解率为63.36%,Cu3B2O6对亚甲基蓝的光催化降解率为99.52%.紫外-可见漫反射光谱(UV-Vis DRS)结果表明,Cu3B2O6的中间能态宽度为1.78 eV,小于CuB2O4的中间能态宽度(1.95 eV),且Cu3B2O6的禁带宽度较窄(Eg=2.34 eV),不仅可以发生价带顶与中间能态的电子跃迁,同时可以发生禁带间的电子跃迁,所以Cu3B2O6比CuB2O4具有更高的可见光催化性能.

Ti掺杂SnO2固溶体是钛基氧化物耐酸阳极的重要组成部分. 采用基于密度泛函理论的第一性原理对Sn1-xTixO2(x=0, 1/12, 1/8, 1/6, 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 5/6)固溶体的电子结构进行计算, 分析了能带结构、 电子态密度和电荷密度以及晶格参数的变化. 结果表明, Ti掺入SnO2晶格后, 其晶格参数随组分增加近似呈直线降低, Ti-O键的共价性强于Sn-O键. 掺杂后带隙仍为直接带隙, 且随着掺杂比例的增加, 带隙逐渐减小. 当掺杂比例x=0.5时, 形成能达到最低值(-6.11 eV), 固溶体最稳定. 本文的计算结果为钛基氧化物电极材料的研究与开发提供了一定的理论依据.     

Ab initio and DFT studies on tautomerism of indazole in gaseous and aqueous phases

Electronic structure of optimized Ge₅, Ge₁₇, Ge₅–O and Ge₅ embedded in SiO₂ nanoparticles have been studied by density functional theory to find out the effect of cluster size and Ge–O bond(s) on the optical energy gap between LUMO and HOMO. It was found that the optical energy gap depends on both cluster size and the number of Ge–O bonds nonlinearly. The optical energy gap was found to be in visible light range when the Ge₅ nanoparticle has been embedded in SiO₂ matrix.     

Threshold photoelectron spectroscopy of iodine monobromide

A high-resolution (1–7 meV) threshold photoelectron spectroscopic study of IBr was performed using synchrotron radiation and a penetrating-field electron spectrometer over the valence ionization region of the molecule. Extensive vibrational structure was found in all three electronic-state band systems (X²Π_i, A²Π_i and B²Σ⁺) of IBr⁺. In the (X²Π_i) band system both spin–orbit components exhibited extended vibrational structure in the Franck–Condon gap regions that is attributed to resonance autoionization of neutral Rydberg states lying in these energy regions. Analysis of this vibrational structure yielded accurate spectroscopic constants.     

Bi_(20)TiO_(32)/聚丙烯腈复合纳米纤维的制备及其对异丙隆的光催化降解性能

采用溶剂热法制备了可见光响应型光催化剂Bi_(20)TiO_(32),为了实现该光催化剂的固定化负载,进一步以Bi_(20)TiO_(32)和聚丙烯腈(PAN)为原料,通过同轴静电纺丝法制备了不同光催化剂含量的Bi_(20)TiO_(32)/PAN复合纳米纤维。通过这一途径一方面可以便于光催化剂的回收利用,另一方面纳米纤维结构可以提高光催化剂与有机污染物反应的接触面积。采用X射线衍射(XRD)、扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、透射电子显微镜(TEM)、紫外-可见漫反射光谱(UV-Vis DRS)和氮气吸附-脱附法对样品的物相组成、形貌结构、光谱吸收和比表面积等进行表征。研究了在可见光照射下Bi_(20)TiO_(32)/PAN复合纳米纤维膜对苯脲类农药异丙隆的光催化降解性能。结果显示,制备的Bi_(20)TiO_(32)光催化剂禁带宽度为2.35 eV,属于典型的可见光响应型光催化剂。制备的Bi_(20)TiO_(32)/PAN复合纳米纤维直径在600~700 nm,Bi_(20)TiO_(32)可以在纳米纤维表面均匀负载,复合纳米纤维膜对可见光具有明显的响应性,对异丙隆具有很好的光催化降解效果,其中光催化剂质量分数为25.7%的样品S3对异丙隆的降解率最高可达到87%。这一研究表明,通过同轴静电纺丝法将光催化剂负载于有机纳米纤维表面,可以保持光催化剂原有光催化效果,是实现光催化剂固定化一条较好的途径。     

Gaseous nitryl azide N4O2: A joint theoretical and experimental study

Gaseous nitryl azide N₄O₂ is generated by the heterogeneous reaction of gaseous ClNO₂ with freshly prepared AgN₃ at −50 °C. The geometric and electronic structure of the molecule in the gas phase has been characterized by in situ photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) and quantum chemical calculations. The experimental first vertical ionization energy of N₄O₂ is 11.39 eV, corresponding to the ionization of an electron on the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) {4a″(π_{nb(N4–N5–N6)})}⁻¹. An apparent vibrational spacing of 1600 ± 60 cm⁻¹ (ν_asO1N2O3) on the second band at 12.52 eV (π_{nb(O1–N2–O3)}) further confirms the preference of energetically stable chain structure in the gas phase. To complement the experimental results, the potential-energy surface of this structurally novel transient molecule is discussed. Both calculations and spectroscopic results suggest that the molecule adopts a trans-planar chain structure, and a five-membered ring decomposition pathway is more favorable.     

Optical and Electrical Properties of Triphenylamine Derivatives for Dye-sensitized Solar Cells and Designing of Novel Molecule

With density functional theory(DFT) method, the optimization of molecular configurations and the calculation of frontier molecular orbitals were achieved for triphenylamine(TPA)-based dye-sensitized solar cell materials at the B3LYP/6-31G(d, p) level. Time-dependent density functional theory(TD-DFT) was applied to calculating the probability of the transition from the ground state to the excited state. And UV-Vis absorption spectra were derived with Franck-Condon approximation. The conjugation length, substitution groups and spatial effects show a slight influence on the dihedral angle of the TPA group. The increase of conjugation length may cause a smaller energy gap as well as a higher highest occupied molecular orbital(HOMO) and a lower lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO). The introduction of methoxyl group and TPA group could lower the energy gap while the HOMO and LUMO were elevated in energy.     

甲胺基-甲脒基混合钙钛矿的第一性原理研究

有机铅卤钙钛矿APbX_3的稳定性是制约其应用的重要因素,对APbX_3钙钛矿中A和X采用不同种类离子混合的化学组分调控是改进其稳定性最有效的方式之一。其中,A位点采用不同比例的甲脒离子(FA)和甲胺离子(MA)是当前研究的热点方向。本文通过第一性原理计算,系统研究了FA_(1-x)MA_xPbI_3体系的结构和光电性质。研究发现FA与MA的混合增加体系的稳定性,其中FA_(0.5)MA_(0.5)PbI_3最稳定。通过分析不同混合比例的结构,揭示了晶格常数随x的增加线性减小;以及带隙随x减小而线性增加。此外,计算结果发现MA所占比例增加时吸收光谱蓝移。研究表明通过FA和MA离子的混合能有效调控钙钛矿的光电性质,从而获得更有效的钙钛矿太阳能电池。

The role of relativity and dispersion controlled inter-chain interaction on the band gap of thiophene, selenophene, and tellurophene oligomers

Ab initio relativistic density functional theoretical calculations have been carried out on π-conjugated oligomers of increasing length with S, Se, and Te as heteroatoms. The band gap of the corresponding polymers has been obtained by plotting lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO)-highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO)gap against the reciprocal of the number of monomer units (1/N) and extrapolating the curve to 1/N = 0. With B3LYP functional, we predict that role of relativistic correction terms is not very significant in the determination of final band gap of thiophene, selenophene, and tellurophene polymer. The origin of this observation is provided through the density of states (DOS) analysis which manifests that DOS contribution across the Fermi level of these polymers is mostly governed by C atoms and as a consequence relativistic correction terms due to heavy heteroatom remain insignificant to the band gap modification. We also inspected the role of inter-chain interaction in determining the net LUMO-HOMO gap of π-stacked double chain oligomers of increasing length. We have found that due to the exciton splitting in the stacked configurations, the LUMO-HOMO gap decreases steadily. Furthermore, we have noticed that dispersion force has important role in the reduction of the LUMO-HOMO gap of the oligomers studied.

全无机卤化铅钙钛矿的结构、热力学稳定性和电子性质

有机-无机杂化卤化铅钙钛矿因具有独特的电子和光学特性,已经成为光电领域最有前途的材料。但是,有机-无机钙钛矿材料及器件稳定性差,限制了其实际应用。与杂化钙钛矿相比,全无机卤化物钙钛矿CsPbX₃(X=Cl,Br,I)显示出更强的热稳定性。全无机卤化物钙钛矿CsPbX₃具有多个晶型,在不同的温度下呈不同相结构。目前,关于CsPbX₃的结构和物理性质仍存在争议。本文我们针对三个晶相α-,β-和γ-CsPbX₃的结构,热力学稳定性和电子性质进行了全面的理论研究。第一性原理计算表明,从高温α相到低温β相,然后再到γ相的相变伴随着PbX₆八面体的畸变。零温形成能计算表明,γ相最稳定,这与实验中γ相为低温稳定相的结论一致。电子性质计算表明,所有CsPbX₃钙钛矿都表现出直接带隙性质,并且带隙值从α相到β相再到γ相逐渐增加。这是由于相变发生时,Pb-X成键强度逐渐减弱,使价带顶能量降低,进而带隙增加。在所有相中,α相结构中较强的Pb-X相互作用,导致了较强的带边色散,使其具有较小的载流子有效质量。     

An oligomer study on small band gap polymers

Small band gap polymers may increase the energy conversion efficiency of polymer solar cells by increased absorption of sunlight. Here we present a combined experimental and theoretical study on the optical and electrochemical properties of a series of well-defined, lengthy, small band gap oligo(5,7-bis(thiophen-2-yl)thieno[3,4-b]pyrazine)s ( E g = 1.50 eV) having alternating donor and acceptor units. The optical absorptions of the ground state, triplet excited state, radical cation, and dication are identified and found to shift to lower energy with increasing chain length. The reduction of the band gap in these alternating small band gap oligomers mainly results from an increase of the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) level. The S 1-T 1 singlet-triplet splitting is reduced from approximately 0.9 eV from the trimeric monomer to -0.5 eV for the pentamer. This significant exchange energy is consistent with the fact that both the HOMO and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) remain distributed over virtually all units, rather than being localized on the D and A units.     

有机半导体的电子电离能、亲和势和极化能的密度泛函理论研究

准确预测有机半导体的能级(如电子电离能和亲和势等)对设计新型有机半导体材料和理解相关机理至关重要。从理论计算的角度看,主要挑战来自于缺少一种不仅能够在定性上合理而且在定量上精确预测,同时并不显著增加计算成本的理论方法。本文中,我们证明了通过结合极化连续介质模型(PCM)和"最优调控"区间分离密度泛函方法能够准确预测一系列有机半导体的电子电离能(IP)、亲和势(EA)和极化能,其预测结果与实验数据吻合得很好。重要的是,经过调控后分子的前线分子轨道能量(即-~εHOMO和-~εLUMO)与对应的IP和EA计算值很接近。调控方法的成功可以进一步归因于其能够根据不同分子体系或同种分子所处的不同状态(气态和固态)"最优"地平衡泛函中分别用于描述电子局域化和离域化的作用。相比而言,其它常见的密度泛函方法由于包含的HF%比例过低(如PBE)或过高(如M06HF和未调控的区间分离泛函),均不能给予合理的预测。因此,我们相信这种PCM-调控的方法能够为研究其它更加复杂的有机体系的能级问题提供一种更加可靠和便捷的理论工具。

New materials based on thiazolothiazole and thiophene candidates for optoelectronic device applications: theoretical investigations

We report theoretical analysis on the geometries and electronic properties of new conjugated compounds based on thiazolothiazole synthesized by Ando et al. (Synth. Met., 156:327 [13]). The theoretical ground-state geometry and electronic structure of the studied molecules were investigated by the density functional theory (DFT) method at Becke’s three-parameter functional and Lee–Yang–Parr functional (B3LYP) level with 6-31G(d,p) basis set. The effects of the ring structure and the substituents on the geometries and electronic properties of these materials are discussed to investigate the relationship between molecular structure and optoelectronic properties. This investigation was used to drive further syntheses towards compounds more useful as active optoelectronic materials. Theoretical knowledge of the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy levels of the components is basic in studying organic solar cells, so the HOMO, LUMO, and gap energy V _oc (open-circuit voltage) of the studied compounds are calculated and discussed. These properties suggest these materials as good candidates for use in organic dye-sensitized solar cells.
