Electronic structure and reactivity of ultra-thin Fe films on a Rh(100) surface

The electronic structure and reactivity of ultra-thin Fe films on a Rh(100) surface have been investigated by angle-resolved ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (ARUPS) and thermal desorption spectroscopy (TDS). The dispersion of d-bands of a clean Rh surface is consistent with the projection of the bulk band structure. One monolayer of Fe film shows a systematic shift of d-bands toward large binding energy by 0.4 eV and a large reduction in the density of states just below the Fermi level, in particular, around the M point. In accordance with the decrease in the density of states at the Fermi level, the bonding energy of hydrogen is greatly reduced to 245 kJ/mol on a 1 ML (ML = monolayer) Fe film, although the sticking coefficient is still in the range of 0.1–0.3. The successive increase in activation energy for the desorption of hydrogen with the increase of Fe film thickness from 1 to 3 ML is associated with a recovery of the density of states at the Fermi level.     

Electronic structure at the PTCDA/GaAs and NTCDA/GaAs interfaces

The formation of the interface between the GaAs(100) single-crystal surface and PTCDA and NTCDA organic semiconductors is investigated. The method of total current spectroscopy makes it possible to trace the formation of the interfacial electronic structure. The two organic materials and the GaAs substrate are bonded together when the π electron cloud of an aromatic ring spreads toward the substrate. This modifies the electronic states of interfacial organic molecules and generates a dipole at the interface.     

Microwave spectra, molecular structure and theoretical calculation of two isotopic species of acetyl isocyanate CD3C(O)NCO and CH3C(O)NCO

The microwave spectra of two isotopic species of acetyl isocyanate, ¹³CH₃C(O)NCO and CD₃C(O)NCO, were observed in order to determine the r_o structure and confirmation of the molecular conformation. These isotopic species were prepared by reacting acetyl-2-¹³C-chloride or acetyl-d₃ chloride with sliver cyanate. The rotational spectra of A-level in 26.5-60.0 GHz region have been observed by Stark-modulated microwave spectrometer. Some absorption lines in E-level were observed in ¹³CH₃C(O)NCO. The rotational constants in the ground vibrational state were determined to be A = 10654.8(18), B = 2177.32(2), and C = 1827.65(2) MHz for ¹³CH₃C(O)NCO, and A = 9713.90(6), B = 2042.04(2), and C = 1722.78(2) MHz for CD₃C(O)NCO, respectively. The values of ΔI (= I_c − I_a − I_b) of the ¹³C species (−3.024(13) uŲ) and the d₃ species (−6.163(3) uŲ) indicate that the molecule has C_s symmetry. The r_s coordinates of the carbon atom in the methyl group were determined to be |a| = 2.183(3), |b| = 0.706(9), and |c| = 0.080(87) Å. The determined coordinates were in agreement with those calculated for the cis form, in which the carbonyl group is eclipsed by the NCO group. The six structural parameters of the cis form were adjusted by fitting to the observed rotational constants. The observed rotational constants of the cis form were in better agreement with those calculated using the QCISD/6-31G (d, p) level rather than those calculated using the MP2/6-31G (d, p) level. The barrier of internal rotation of the methyl group was determined as 4.283(16) kJ mol⁻¹ in ¹³CH₃C(O)NCO. The structural tendencies and the relationship between ∠RNC and ¹⁴N quadrupole coupling constants (χ_cc) were discussed.     

Oscillation of the NCO model

We study opinion oscillation of the nonconsensus opinion model (NCO) on graphs, and in particular on bipartite graphs. Using intensive numerical simulations, we investigate the relationship between amplitude A$A$ (the percentage of nodes whose opinions oscillate) and (p,q)$(p,q)$, which are the initial configuration fractions with opinion 1 on two sets of two bipartite graphs. Finally, for the general graph, we present several definitions and develop three propositions as regards whether an oscillation can occur or not on a certain graph.     

Electronic structure of diamond/graphite composite nanoparticles

The electronic structure of samples produced by nanodiamond annealing has been examined using ultra-soft X-ray emission and X-ray absorption spectroscopy. Analysis of spectra of diamond/graphite composites showed that carbon atoms constituting the nanoparticles are at least in three states: diamond-like state, graphitic-like state and interface carbon, characterized by high electron localization. Comparison between theoretical spectra of the models and experimental spectra suggested the latter states correspond to three-coordinated carbon atoms from diamond surface.     

Electronic structure of Fe2CrSn

From the first principles calculation based on the density functional theory, we find that consideration of electron–electron correlation drives Fe₂CrSn from a barely half-metallic state to a magnetic semiconductor. However, in both cases, the magnetic state remains ferrimagnetic with a total spin moment of 2μ_B$2{\mathrm{\mu }}_{\mathrm{B}}$, with Cr carrying a large local moment that is oppositely aligned to that of Fe.     

Electronic structure of ErH2

A band structure study reveals that in contrast to the pure rare earth metal, the Fermi level of the dihydride falls near the bottom of the 5d band, in a region of low density of states; consequences on Fermi surface geometry, magnetic properties and resistivity are suggested. Below the metal d states lie two overlapping metal-hydrogen bands, in agreement with Weaver's photoemission data and Switendick's result on YH₂.     

Electronic structure of TiH2

The electronic structure of TiH₂ has been studied using the augmented-plane-wave method and the LCAO interpolation. The density of states and its orbital components show that the conduction band is Ti d-like and that the valence band is largely derived from the hydrogen orbitals with small Ti 3d hybridization. The electronic charges on the hydrogen atom are ～ 1.5 as compared to 1.6–1.7 of the rare-earth metal hydrides.     

ESR study on the reactivity of two isomers of LaC82 with disilirane

We observed photochemical and thermal addition of disilirane to the LaC₈₂-A isomer, which give new ESR active species. Both ESR spectra of the adducts in photo- and thermal reactions are well simulated by at least six octet components, and the isotropic La coupling constants and g-factors of the six octet components are determined. On the other hand, the reaction of the LaC₈₂-B isomer with disilirane gives no ESR active species. This fact is also verified by mass spectroscopic measurements. The different reactivities with disilirane of the two isomers are not interpreted by a popular view that the two isomers have a different C₈₂ cage structure, but we rather suggest that the origin of the isomers of metallofullerenes should be re-examined.     

Electronic structure and magnetism of Cr/Sn multilayer systems

The electronic structure and magnetism of Cr/Sn and Fe/Cr/Sn/Cr multilayer systems with monolayer Sn are studied by means of a first-principles method. The calculated hyperfine field at Sn site is significantly large (∼20 T) in Cr/Sn multilayers, while the value is remarkably diminished (∼4 T) in the case of Fe/Cr/Sn/Cr multilayers. This trend of the hyperfine field is consistent with recently reported experimental results. It is found that the hyperfine field at Sn site is determined by the spin magnetic moment at the interface Cr site. The most important feature in the electronic structure of the multilayer systems is the existence of an interface state at the Cr interface layer near the Fermi energy region.     

Electronic structure and magnetism of CeCoGe3

The electronic band structure of CeCoGe₃ has been calculated using the self-consistent full potential nonorthogonal local orbital minimum basis scheme based on density functional theory. We investigated the electronic structure with the spin-orbit interaction and on-site Coulomb potential for the Ce-derived 4f orbitals to obtain the correct ground state of CeCoGe₃. The exchange interaction between local f electrons and conduction electrons play an important role in their heavy fermion characters. The fully relativistic band structure scheme shows that spin-orbit coupling splits the 4f states into two manifolds, the 4f_7/2 and the 4f_5/2 multiplets.     

Electronic structure and magnetism of FeGe2

The electronic band structure of FeGe₂ has been calculated using the self-consistent full potential non-orthogonal local orbital minimum basis scheme based on the density functional theory. In the band structure of FeSn₂, Fe 3d and Sn 5p states play important roles near the Fermi level. Our calculations show that large enhancement of the static susceptibility over its non-interacting value is found due to a peak in the density of states at the Fermi level.     

Electronic and structural properties of biazulene,terazulene, and polyazulene isomers

Facile graph theoretical MO solutions are demonstrated. The dihedral angles between the azulene units at the bridging bond in biazulenes were determined by MM2 calculations. Polyazulenes are predicted to be conductive only via the polaron mechanism. Polaron conduction in 1,3‐ and 2,6‐polyazulene is qualitatively predicted to be more facile than in 4,8‐ and 5,7‐polyazulene. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
