Au原子对并五苯传输性质影响的理论探讨

并五苯作为典型的空穴传输材料一直是人们研究的热点. 本文在密度泛函理论框架下结合Marcus理论重点讨论了并五苯-Au体系四种异构体的传输性质,从分子内重组能、转移积分和空穴传输速率三个角度研究了Au原子的引入对并五苯传输性质的影响. 计算结果显示,Au原子的引入使并五苯的重组能贡献主要由C-C单双键的伸缩振动转变为Au原子与并五苯之间的拉伸振动,并且这种拉伸振动随着Au原子从中心到边缘逐渐加强. 此外,Au原子的引入对分子间的转移积分也产生了一定的影响,造成了相对小的转移积分值,分析得出是由分子构型和轨道分布两方面共同作用的结果.     

差分电荷密度在电子结构分析中的教学实践

差分电荷密度可以研究分子、团簇、固体材料以及分子与固体材料间相互作用导致的电荷重新分布，广泛应用于电子结构分析。作者在长期的理论研究与“密度泛函理论在化学中的应用”课程教学过程中发现，差分电荷密度计算根据研究对象和研究目标的不同，计算方法与结果也大不相同。根据研究的目标，差分电荷密度可以分为原子基、碎片基、特定对象的差分电荷密度及自旋电荷密度。如果不能正确理解其概念，选择合适的计算方法，则无法获取正确的电子结构信息。本文系统整理了常见与特殊差分电荷密度计算的类型、计算方法与适用研究体系，通过课堂教师讲解与演示、学生练习，结合探究性课后作业，使学生深入理解、掌握这一重要电子分析方法，为教学与科研提供重要支持。

电场对杂金属串配合物[CuCuM（npa）4Cl]+（M=Pt,Pd,Ni）结构影响的理论研究

在Cl→M(r)和M(r)→Cl两个方向电场作用下,采用密度泛函UBP86方法研究了线性杂金属串配合物[CuCuM(npa)4Cl]+(1:M=Pt,2:M=Pd,3:M=Ni)的几何和电子结构的变化规律.总体上,电场作用下高电势端原子的自旋密度减小而低电势端原子的自旋密度增大,原子的负电荷向高电势方向移动,分子能量下降,偶极矩呈线性变化;前线轨道分布呈规律性变化,随电场增大前线占据轨道能升高的显著性次序为πnb>σ*>δ*M(r)—N(r),这使前线占据轨道能级易交错.在Cl→M(r)电场作用下,自旋密度由Cu向杂金属M离域,Cu的正电荷向M转移;分子能量下降更显著;Cu—Cu和Cu—M键缩短,前线轨道能隙减小,利于金属链的电子传输.而M(r)→Cl电场则使Cu—Cu,Cu—M键增长,但对分子能量及金属原子的电荷密度和自旋密度的影响不明显,当增大至一定电场强度后金属原子的自旋密度保持不变,两个方向电场作用下自旋密度的变化呈明显的非对称性.故1～3可能具有分子整流器的潜在应用.

系列苯炔化合物和苯炔树枝大分子的合成及其光学性质的研究

合成了一系列苯炔化合物, 并对它们的紫外吸收和荧光发射性质进行了研究. 通过HOMO和LUMO轨道能量差ΔE、分子轨道图及相关碳原子上的电荷密度讨论了分子结构和大小对这些化合物紫外吸收和荧光发光性质的影响. 在间位苯炔化合物及间位苯炔树枝大分子(dendrimer)中, 紫外吸收峰不随苯炔分枝数和dendrimer阶数增加而红移, 共轭被中心苯环隔断. 而在邻或对位取代的苯炔化合物中, 共轭则不受中心苯环的影响而延伸至整个分子. 其原因可能和中心苯环上与苯炔分枝相连的碳原子的电荷密度有关. 在激发态下, 间位苯炔化合物中苯炔分枝间存在耦合作用, 荧光发射随苯炔分枝数增加而红移. 但这种耦合作用只发生在与同一苯环相连的分枝间, 因此荧光发射不随dendrimer阶数增加而红移.

Location of the hole and acid proton in neutral nonprotonated and protonated mixed (phthalocyaninato)(porphyrinato) yttrium double-decker complexes: density functional theory calculations

The location of the hole and acid proton in neutral nonprotonated and protonated mixed (phthalocyaninato)(porphyrinato) yttrium double-decker complexes, respectively, is studied on the basis of density functional theory (DFT) calculations on the molecular structures, molecular orbitals, atomic charges, and electronic absorption and infrared spectra of the neutral, reduced, and two possible protonated species of a mixed (phthalocyaninato)(porphyrinato) yttrium compound: [(Pc)Y(Por)], [(Pc)Y(Por)]-, [(HPc)Y(Por)], and [(Pc)Y(HPor)], respectively. When the neutral [(Pc)Y(Por)] is reduced to [(Pc)Y(Por)]-, the calculated results on the molecular structure, atomic charge, and electronic absorption and infrared spectra show that the added electron has more influence on the Pc ring than on its Por counterpart, suggesting that the location of the hole is on the Pc ring in neutral [(Pc)Y(Por)]. Nevertheless, comparison of the calculation results on the structure, orbital composition, charge distribution, and electronic absorption and infrared spectra between [(HPc)Y(Por)] and [(Pc)Y(HPor)] leads to the conclusion that the acid proton in the protonated mixed (phthalocyaninato)(porphyrinato) yttrium compound should be localized on the Por ring rather than the Pc ring, despite the localization of the hole on the Pc ring in [(Pc)Y(Por)]. This result is in line with the trend revealed by comparative studies of the X-ray single-crystal molecular structures between [MIII{Pc(alpha-OC5H11)4}(TClPP)] and [M(III)H{Pc(alpha-OC5H11)4}(TClPP)] (H2TClPP=5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-chlorophenyl)porphyrin; M=Sm, Eu). The present work not only represents the first systemic DFT study on the structures and properties of mixed (phthalocyaninato)(porphyrinato) yttrium double-decker complexes, but more importantly sheds further light on the nature of protonated bis(tetrapyrrole) rare-earth complexes.     

Combined charge and spin density experimental study of the yttrium(III) semiquinonato complex Y(HBPz3)2(DTBSQ) and DFT calculations

High-resolution X-ray diffraction and polarized neutron diffraction experiments have been performed on the Y-semiquinonate complex, Y(HBPz3)2(DTBSQ), in order to determine the charge and spin densities in the paramagnetic ground state, S = (1/2). The aim of these combined studies is to bring new insights to the antiferromagnetic coupling mechanism between the semiquinonate radical and the rare earth ion in the isomorphous Gd(HBPz3)2(DTBSQ) complex. The experimental charge density at 106 K yields detailed information about the bonding between the Y3+ ion and the semiquinonate ligand; the topological charge of the yttrium atom indicates a transfer of about 1.5 electrons from the radical toward the Y3+ ion in the complex, in agreement with DFT calculations. The electron density deformation map reveals well-resolved oxygen lone pairs with one lobe polarized toward the yttrium atom. The determination of the induced spin density at 1.9 K under an applied magnetic field of 9.5 T permits the visualization of the delocalized magnetic orbital of the radical throughout the entire molecule. The spin is mainly distributed on the oxygen atoms [O1 (0.12(1) mu B), O2(0.11(1) mu B)] and the carbon atoms [C21 (0.24(1) mu B), C22(0.20(1) mu B), C24(0.16(1) mu B), C25(0.12(1) mu B)] of the carbonyl ring. A significant spin delocalization on the yttrium site of 0.08(2) mu B is observed, proving that a direct overlap with the radical magnetic orbital can occur at the rare earth site and lead to antiferromagnetic coupling. The DFT calculations are in good quantitative agreement with the experimental charge density results, but they underestimate the spin delocalization of the oxygen toward the yttrium and the carbon atoms of the carbonyl ring.     

Density functional theory and DFT+U study of transition metal porphines adsorbed on Au(111) surfaces and effects of applied electric fields

We apply density functional theory (DFT) and the DFT+U technique to study the adsorption of transition metal porphine molecules on atomistically flat Au(111) surfaces. DFT calculations using the Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof exchange correlation functional correctly predict the palladium porphine (PdP) low-spin ground state. PdP is found to adsorb preferentially on gold in a flat geometry, not in an edgewise geometry, in qualitative agreement with experiments on substituted porphyrins. It exhibits no covalent bonding to Au(111), and the binding energy is a small fraction of an electronvolt. The DFT+U technique, parametrized to B3LYP-predicted spin state ordering of the Mn d-electrons, is found to be crucial for reproducing the correct magnetic moment and geometry of the isolated manganese porphine (MnP) molecule. Adsorption of Mn(II)P on Au(111) substantially alters the Mn ion spin state. Its interaction with the gold substrate is stronger and more site-specific than that of PdP. The binding can be partially reversed by applying an electric potential, which leads to significant changes in the electronic and magnetic properties of adsorbed MnP and approximately 0.1 A changes in the Mn-nitrogen distances within the porphine macrocycle. We conjecture that this DFT+U approach may be a useful general method for modeling first-row transition metal ion complexes in a condensed-matter setting.     

On the Control of Magnetic Anisotropy through an External Electric Field

The effect of an external electric field on the magnetic anisotropy of a single‐molecule magnet has been investigated, for the first time, with the help of DFT. The application of an electric field can alter the magnetic anisotropy from “easy‐plane” to “easy‐axis” type. Excitation analysis performed through time‐dependent DFT predicts that the external electric field facilitates metal to π‐acceptor ligand charge transfer, leading to uniaxial magnetic anisotropy and concomitant spin Hall effect in a single molecule.     

分子基磁体Cr[N(CN)2]2电子结构和半金属性的第一性原理研究

The electronic structure and half-metallicity of molecule-based ferromagnet Cr[N(CN)₂]₂ have been investigated using first-principles with generalized gradient approximation. The total energy, spin-polarized electronic band structure, density of states (DOSs) and spin mag-netic moments were all calculated. The calculations reveal that the compound Cr[N(CN)₂]₂ is a really half-metallic ferromagnet with a integral magnetic moment of 2.0000 μB per molecule in the optimized lattice constant. Based on the spin distribution and the DOS, it is found that the total magnetic moment is mainly from the Cr²⁺ with relative small contribution from C and N atoms. The sensitivity of the half-metallicity to small change in lattice constant is also discussed.     

Oxygen interstitials in superconducting La2CuO4: their valence state and role

The nature of the much debated valence state of an interstitial oxygen atom in oxygen-doped La2CuO4 is the subject of this paper. In model cluster calculations, we studied the position, charge, and spin state of the interstitial oxygen atoms in this superconductor. The models considered allow the interstitial oxygen to move off a symmetrical position, to have varying spin and charge, and to be surrounded by various magnetic environments. UB3LYP calculations show that a model having an interstitial oxygen atom with a total spin of 1 is lowest in energy; the interstitial oxygen atoms here act as stable radicals with a net charge of -1. These results agree with experimental evidence for the paramagnetic behavior for interstitial atoms. The energy associated with a spin flip at a Cu site in our models is lower if interstitial oxygen has a local electron spin density, compared to the case when it does not. We provide a possible explanation for the increase of the doping concentrations of interstitial oxygen with a decrease of the Néel temperature of this system. The relative stability of the models we consider depends on their spin states, accompanied by structural changes; this explains indirectly the experimental change of the slope (from 2 to 1.3) of the linear relationship between the hole concentration and the oxygen content. Our results support a stripe phase in high temperature superconductivity; in our calculations, hole doping to the copper oxide layer comes only through the formation of an oxygen interstitial pair, not from any change of the local structural environment and magnetic field around the single interstitial.     

Spin in a Closed‐Shell Organic Molecule on a Metal Substrate Generated by a Sigmatropic Reaction

Inert metal surfaces present more chances of hosting organic intact radicals than other substrates, but large amounts of delocalized electronic states favor charge transfer and thus spin quenching. Lowering the molecule–substrate interaction is a usual strategy to stabilize radicals on surfaces. In some works, thin insulating layers were introduced to provide a controllable degree of electronic decoupling. Recently, retinoid molecules adsorbed on gold have been manipulated with a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) to exhibit a localized spin, but calculations failed to find a radical derivative of the molecule on the surface. Now the formation of a neutral radical spatially localized in a tilted and lifted cyclic end of the molecule is presented. An allene moiety provokes a perpendicular tilt of the cyclic end relative to the rest of the conjugated chain, thus localizing the spin of the dehydrogenated allene in its lifted subpart. DFT calculations and STM manipulations give support to the proposed mechanism.     

Effects of the covalent linker groups on the spin transport properties of single nickelocene molecules attached to single-walled carbon nanotubes

The understanding of how the spin moment of a magnetic molecule transfers to a carbon nanotube, when the molecule is attached to it, is crucial for designing novel supramolecular spin devices. Here we explore such an issue by modeling the spin transport of a single-walled carbon nanotube grafted with one nickelocene molecule. In particular we investigate how the electron transport becomes spin-polarized depending on the specific linking group bonding nickelocene to the nanotube. We consider as linkers both aziridine and pyrrolidine rings and the amide group. Our calculations show that, at variance with aziridine, both pyrrolidine and amide, do alter the sp(2) character of the binding site of the nanotube and thus affect the transmission around the Fermi level. However, only aziridine allows transferring the spin polarization of the nickelocene to the nanotube, whose conductance at the Fermi level becomes spin-polarized. This suggests the superiority of aziridine as a linker for grafting magnetic molecules onto carbon nanotubes with efficient spin filtering functionality.
