A Density Functional Theory Study of Codoping Characteristics of Sulfur with Alkaline Earth in Delafossite CuAlO_2

The structural,electronic properties and formation energies of sulfur and alkaline earth codoped delafossite CuAlO_2 have been investigated using the first-principles density functional theory calculations.Our results reveal that the volume of codoping systems increases with the increasing atomic radius of metal atoms.The formation energies under different growth conditions have been calculated,showing that the codoping systems are formed easily under O-rich growth conditions.Electronic band structures and density of states have been obtained.The decreased bandgaps,enhanced covalence and appearance of electron acceptors after codoping are all good for p-type conductivity.     

Phase stability of Crn+ 1GaCn MAX phases from first principles and Cr2GaC thin‐film synthesis using magnetron sputtering from elemental targets

Ab‐initio calculations have been used to investigate the phase stability and magnetic state of Cr_{n+ 1}GaC_n MAX phase. Cr₂GaC (n = 1) was predicted to be stable, with a ground state corresponding to an antiferromagnetic spin configuration. Thin‐film synthesis by magnetron sputtering from elemental targets, including liquid Ga, shows the formation of Cr₂GaC, previously only attained from bulk synthesis methods. The films were deposited at 650 °C on MgO(111) substrates. X‐ray diffraction and high‐resolution transmission electron microscopy show epitaxial growth of (000?) MAX phase.

Theoretical stability,thin film synthesis and transport properties of the Mon +1GaCn MAX phase

The phase stability of Mo_{n +1}GaC_n has been investigated using ab‐initio calculations. The results indicate stability for the Mo₂GaC phase only, with a formation enthalpy of –0.4 meV per atom. Subsequent thin film synthesis of Mo₂GaC was performed through magnetron sputtering from elemental targets onto Al₂O₃ [0001], 6H‐SiC [0001] and MgO [111] substrates within the temperature range of 500 °C and 750 °C. High structural quality films were obtained for synthesis on MgO [111] substrates at 590 ºC. Evaluation of transport properties showed a superconducting behavior with a critical temperature of approximately 7 K, reducing upon the application of an external magnetic field. The results point towards the first superconducting MAX phase in thin film form. (© 2015 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH &Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Structural parameters, electronic structures, elastic stiffness and thermal properties of M2PC (M=V, Nb, Ta)

Using pseudo-potential plane-wave method based on the density functional theory in conjunction with the generalized gradient approximation, structural parameters, electronic structures, elastic stiffness and thermal properties of M₂PC, with M=V, Nb, Ta, were studied. The optimized zero pressure geometrical parameters are in good agreement with the available results. Pressure effect, up to 20 GPa, on the lattice parameters was investigated. Electronic properties are studied throughout the calculation of densities of states and band structures. The elastic constants and their pressure dependence were predicted using the static finite strain technique. We performed numerical estimations of the bulk modulus, shear modulus, Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio and average sound velocity for ideal polycrystalline M₂PC aggregates in framework of the Voigt-Reuss-Hill approximation. We estimated the Debye temperature and the theoretical minimum thermal conductivity of M₂PC.     

协变密度泛函理论中的张量力效应

张量力是核子-核子相互作用的重要成分,被认为是理解奇特原子核中壳结构演化规律的关键要素。然而,目前对于核介质中的张量力及其效应的定量认识,仍存在很多亟待解决的关键问题。着重梳理了在原子核密度泛函理论框架下,研究有效相互作用中的张量力成分以及相应的张量力效应的相关工作,重点包括:基于相对论Hartree-Fock理论,以同位素链中的质子幻数壳演化为例,定量提取与分析其中的张量力效应;以及基于第一性原理的相对论Brueckner-Hartree-Fock理论,以中子滴单粒子能谱中的自旋-轨道劈裂演化为例,提出与张量力效应相关联的"准实验数据"。最后,展望原子核密度泛函理论今后可能的发展策略。Tensor force is one of the most important components of the nucleon-nucleon interaction. It plays a critical role in understanding the shell evolution in exotic nuclei. However, there are still several puzzles concerning the tensor force and its effects in the nuclear medium. In this paper, we mainly focus on the studies of tensor force in the effective interactions and its effects in finite nuclear systems within the scheme of nuclear density functional theory. In particular, we highlight the recent developments, including the quantitative analysis of tensor effects in the relativistic Hartree-Fock theory by taking the evolution of proton magic shells in the isotopic chains as an example, and the "meta-data" of tensor effects provided by the ab initio relativistic Brueckner-Hartree-Fock theory by taking the evolution of spin-orbit splitting in the single-particle spectra of neutron drops as an example. Perspectives are focused on the possible strategies for the future developments of nuclear density functional theory.

Sulphur on rutile(1 1 0): A theoretical study

Reactions of elementary sulphur with the rutile (1 1 0) surface are of interest for catalytic desulphurization and have recently been studied experimentally. Here a complete mechanism for the sulphurization of the surface in UHV experiments has been derived from the results of first principles molecular dynamics simulations. It provides the dissociation of S₂ molecules, the reaction of S atoms with oxygen atoms in the surface, the insertion of sulphur atoms into surface vacancies and the formation of SO_x species. Possible elementary steps for these processes are discussed in the paper on the basis of the calculations.     

Na-呋喃荷移络合物弱相互作用的密度泛函理论研究

在B3LYP／6－311＋G*水平上,对Na-呋喃体系可能存在的弱相互作用复合物进行了全自由度能量梯度优化,发现了Na-呋喃体系存在两个能量极小结构A、B,其中,结构A是Na原子的3s^1电子直接和呋喃杂环体系中的所有重原子的共轭大π 体系 相互偶合,形成一个具有Cs对称性的金属有机复合物;而结构B为Na 原子的3s^1电子主要通过杂原子O和杂环上原有的五中心六电子大π体系形成一个新的平面六中心七电子大π体系,具有C2V对称 性。结果B较结构 A 稳定3.40kJ/mol。结构A中的Na-O键长为0.38nm,<COC为106.9°,由于金属Na对呋喃杂环的作用使整个分子平面变形,C1、C2、C3、C4在同一个平面内,而05则稍微翘离平面且05原子距离由C1、C2、C3、C4 组成的平面的垂直距离约为0.035nm.结构B中Na-O键长为0.26nm,＜COC为106.8°。金属Na原子和杂环中所有的原子在同一个平面内。并在MP2和B3LYP水平下,用3－311＋G＊基组精确计算了最稳定结构B的结合能为△E＝4.5-5.1kJ/mol.

Theoretical investigation on radiation tolerance of M_(n+1)AX_n phases

Ternary M_(n+1)AX_n phases with layered hexagonal structures, as candidate materials used for next-generation nuclear reactors, have shown great potential in tolerating radiation damage due to their unique combination of ceramic and metallic properties. However, M_(n+1)AX_n materials behave differently in amorphization when exposed to energetic neutron and ion irradiations in experiment. We first analyze the irradiation tolerances of different M_(n+1)AX_n(MAX) phases in terms of electronic structure, including the density of states(DOS) and charge density map. Then a new method based on the Bader analysis with the first-principle calculation is used to estimate the stabilities of MAX phases under irradiation. Our calculations show that the substitution of Cr/V/Ta/Nb by Ti and Si/Ge/Ga by Al can increase the ionicities of the bonds,thus strengthening the radiation tolerance. It is also shown that there is no obvious difference in radiation tolerance between M_(n+1)AC_n and M_(n+1)AN_n due to the similar charge transfer values of C and N atoms. In addition, the improved radiation tolerance from Ti_3AlC_2 to Ti_2AlC (Ti_3AlC_2 and Ti_2AlC have the same chemical elements), can be understood in terms of the increased Al/TiC layer ratio. Criteria based on the quantified charge transfer can be further used to explore other M_(n+1)AX_n phases with respect to their radiation tolerance, playing a critical role in choosing appropriate MAX phases before they are subjected to irradiation in experimental test for future nuclear reactors.     

Codoping of Potassium and Bromine in Carbon Nanotubes： A Density Functional Theory Study

We investigate the co-doping of potassium and bromine in single-walled carbon nanotubes （SWCNTs） and doublewalled carbon nanotubes （DWCNTs） based on density functional theory. In the co-doped （6,0） SWCNTs, the 4s electron of potassium is transferred to nanotube and Br, leading to the n-type feature of SWCNTs. When potassium is intercalated into inner tube and bromine is put on outer tube, the positive and negative charges reside on the outer and inner tubes of the （7,0）@（16,0） DWCNT, respectively. It is expected that DWCNTs would be an ideal candidate for p-n junction and diode applications.     

Density functional theory study of AunMn(n=1-8) clusters

Equilibrium geometries, relative stabilities, and magnetic properties of small Au_nMn (n=1-8) clusters have been investigated using density functional theory at the PW91P86 level. It is found that Mn atoms in the ground state Au_nMn isomers tend to occupy the most highly coordinated position and the lowest energy structure of Au_nMn clusters with even n is similar to that of pure Au_n+1 clusters, except for n=2. The substitution of Au atom in Au_n+1 cluster by a Mn atom improves the stability of the host clusters. Maximum peaks are observed for Au_nMn clusters at n=2, 4 on the size dependence of second-order energy differences and fragmentation energies, implying that the two clusters possess relatively higher stability. The HOMO-LUMO energy gaps of the ground state Au_nMn clusters show a pronounced odd-even oscillation with the number of Au atoms, and the energy gap of Au₂Mn cluster is the biggest among all the clusters. The magnetism calculations indicate that the total magnetic moment of Au_nMn cluster, which has a very large magnetic moment in comparison to the pure Au_n+1 cluster, is mainly localized on Mn atom.     

人参皂甙Re结构与振动光谱的密度泛函理论研究

利用密度泛函理论方法(B3LYP/6-31G)对人参中的有效成分人参皂甙Re(Ginsenoside Re)的两种异构体20-(R)-Re和20-(S)-Re的平衡几何构型进行了优化,对其振动频率进行了计算, 二者的空间结构有明显的不同,振动光谱也有一定的区别。这些变化是因为20号手性碳4个取代基空间取向不同导致两种异构体的堆积方式不同,从而导致红外和拉曼光谱峰位以及峰形变化。根据理论上计算出来的红外强度与拉曼活性及相对应的频率,对实验得到的红外光谱和拉曼光谱进行了指认,发现计算值1 541, 1 456和1 424 cm-1等谱峰,可作为区分两种异构体的特征谱峰。计算的振动频率同拉曼光谱的实验结果较好吻合。这一结果表明,振动光谱可以用来对人参有效成分进行鉴定。

Adhesion and bonding of Pt/Ni and Pt/Co overlayers: Density functional calculations

The electronic and energetic properties of bimetallic surfaces Pt/Ni(111) and Pt/Co(111) are examined using the FP-LAPW (Full-PotentialLinearized Augmented Plane Wave) method by means of spin-polarized and non-polarized calculations. We present both the results of the shifts in the d-band centers when one metal (Pt) is pseudomorfically deposited on another with smaller lattice constant (Ni, Co) and those corresponding to the surface and adhesion energies. The surface is modeled by a seven layer slab separated in z direction by a vacuum region of six substrate layers. The results obtained for pure Ni, Co and Pt surfaces are presented in order to compare with experimental and theoretical data reported in the literature
