NixZry(x:y=1∶2或2∶1)团簇的量子化学研究

根据化学键理论和拓扑学原理,设计了非晶态团簇NixZry(x:y=1∶2 或2∶1, x+y≤9)的几十种可能的构型,并应用量子化学从头算方法对它们的几何构型进行了优化,分析比较了这些构型的能量和稳定性。结果表明对于NixZry(x:y=1∶2)低对称性的平面构型最稳定,而NixZry(x:y=2∶1)三棱柱构型最稳定。这可能是由于两者外层价电子的数量差异所致： Zr仅有4个价电子,较适宜配位数低的平面构型,而Ni（4s23d8),更适宜立体构型。

B12Sc4和B12Ti4团簇的储氢性质

提出了两个稳定的团簇B12Sc4和B12Ti4,基于理论计算,研究了它们的结构与储氢性质.结果发现,在这两个稳定的团簇中,过渡金属原子不会聚合在一起而影响它们对氢气的吸附. B12Sc4最多可以吸附12个氢分子,达到7.25%(质量分数)的储氢量,它的平均每氢分子吸附能量为-10.5 kJ·mol-1. B12Ti4最多只能吸附8个氢分子,储氢量为4.78%,但其平均每氢分子吸附能量可达-50.2 kJ·mol-1.进一步计算表明,即使在77 K,也需要很高的氢气压力才能使12个氢分子都吸附到B12Sc4上.电子结构分析表明, B12Ti4-nH2吸附结构中的Kubas作用要大于相应B12Sc4-nH2结构中的Kubas作用

B12Sc4和B12Ti4团簇的储氢性质

提出了两个稳定的团簇B₁₂Sc₄和B₁₂Ti₄, 基于理论计算, 研究了它们的结构与储氢性质. 结果发现, 在这两个稳定的团簇中, 过渡金属原子不会聚合在一起而影响它们对氢气的吸附. B₁₂Sc₄最多可以吸附12个氢分子, 达到7.25% (质量分数)的储氢量. 它的平均每氢分子吸附能量为10.5 kJ·mol^-1. B₁₂Ti₄最多只能吸附8个氢分子, 储氢量为4.78%. 但平均每氢分子吸附能量可达50.2 kJ·mol^-1. 进一步计算表明, 即使在77 K,也需要很高的氢气压力才能使12个氢分子都吸附到B₁₂Sc₄上. 电子结构分析表明, B₁₂Ti₄-nH₂吸附结构中的Kubas作用要大于相应B₁₂Sc₄-nH₂结构中的Kubas作用.     

InnNa和InnNa+(n=2-8)的团簇结构和电子性质

在密度泛函理论B3LYP水平上, 对InnNa和InnNa+(n=2-8)团簇进行了结构优化和振动频率计算. 计算结果表明, InnNa(n=2、3、4、6)最稳定结构中的对称性分别为C2v、C3v、C4v和C2v, 而InnNa(n=5、7、8)的最稳定结构的对称性为C1点群. 从InnNa(n=4-8)的最稳定结构可以看出, Na原子均位于四个In原子形成的四边形面上. 对于InnNa+(n=2-8), 除了In2Na+、In4Na+和In7Na+, 其它结构都与其中性结构相似. 进一步计算InnNa(n=2-8)团簇的平均结合能、能量的二阶差分以及绝热电离能表明, InnNa(n=2-8)团簇能量的二阶差分呈现奇偶交替特征, In4Na和In6Na较其它团簇更为稳定, 而且理论计算得到的绝热电离能和实验结果吻合得很好.     

Cu_nNi(n=2-13)团簇基态结构和电子特性的密度泛函研究

基于第一性原理,利用密度泛函理论中广义梯度近似(GGA)对团簇Cun-1Ni和Cun(n=3-14)进行了结构优化和能量计算,结果表明,单质Cu团簇不是以密实结构而是以类平面结构生长,但Ni的掺杂使得Cu团簇结构以二十面体为基础生长并且增加了团簇的稳定性;团簇结合能的二阶差分计算表明Cu3Ni,Cu7Ni和Cu9Ni结构最为稳定;在团簇的最稳定结构中Ni原子趋于占据团簇的中心位置和更多的Cu原子形成化学键;位于表面的Cu原子成为Mülliken电荷的接受体而带负电性,这也可能是Ni掺杂Cu合金耐腐蚀性增强的原因之一;Ni的掺杂使原来没有磁性的铜团簇显示了磁性且总自旋磁矩表现明显的奇偶振荡,为1或2μB,与团簇的尺寸无关.     

TbSin(n=2-13)团簇的结构、电子及磁学性质

利用相对论密度泛函理论在广义梯度近似下研究TbSi_n (n=2-13)团簇的结构、稳定性、电子和磁学性质. 对团簇的平均结合能、离解能、电荷转移、最高占据分子轨道(HOMO)和最低未占据分子轨道(LUMO)的能级差、Mulliken 电荷分析和磁学性质进行了计算和讨论. TbSi_n团簇并没有像实验推测的那样在n=10形成嵌入式的结构. 我们推断电子亲和势的急剧变化不仅与嵌入式的结构有关, 而且与电子的固有稳定性相关.Mulliken 电荷分析表明电荷总是从Tb 原子转向Si 原子. 团簇的磁矩主要局域在Tb 原子的周围, 并且主要由f电子贡献, f 电子表现出局域性并且不参与化学成键. 以TbSi₁₀为例的分波态密度分析表明Tb与Si 原子间存在很强的sp轨道杂化.     

Cux (x=1-4)团簇在CeO2(111)表面的吸附

用基于密度泛函理论的第一性原理方法研究了Cu团簇(Cu_x, x=1-4)在CeO₂(111)表面的吸附. 研究发现当团簇比较小时(x=2, 3), 倾向于平铺表面; 当x=4时, Cu团簇在CeO₂(111)表面以三维的四面体结构吸附较为稳定, 从Cu 3d到Ce 4f的电荷转移使Cu团簇带正电荷. 由二维的菱形结构到三维的四面体结构的转变势垒为1.05 eV, 并且其中一个Cu原子直接迁移到另外三个Cu原子的空位顶部的转变路径比较有利. 在Cu团簇与CeO₂的相互作用过程中, Cu-O和Cu-Cu相互作用的竞争最终决定了Cu团簇在CeO₂上的形貌. 这种CeO₂(111)负载的带正电的三维Cu团簇将对水分解, 进而对水煤气反应具有高的催化活性.     

Structure and Stability of (NG)nCN3Be3+ Clusters and Comparison with (NG)BeY0/+

The noble gas binding ability of CN₃Be₃⁺ clusters was assessed both by ab intio and density functional studies. The global minimum structure of the CN₃Be₃⁺ cluster binds with four noble‐gas (NG) atoms, in which the Be atoms are acting as active centers. The electron transfer from the noble gas to the Be atom plays a key role in binding. The dissociation energy of the Be? NG bond gradually increases from He to Rn, maintaining the periodic trend. The HOMO–LUMO gap, an indicator for stability, gives additional insight into these NG‐bound clusters. The temperature at which the NG‐binding process is thermodynamically feasible was identified. In addition, we investigated the stability of two new neutral NG compounds, (NG)BeSe and (NG)BeTe, and found them to be suitable candidates to be detected experimentally such as (NG)BeO and (NG)BeS. The dissociation energies of the Be? NG bond in monocationic analogues of (NG)BeY (Y=O, S, Se, Te) were found to be larger than in the corresponding neutral counter‐parts. Finally, the higher the positive charge on the Be atoms, the higher the dissociation energy for the Be? NG bond becomes.

Ab Initio Theoretical Investigation on the Geometrical and Electronic Structures of AlAun-/0 (n = 2-4) Clusters

A systematic density functional theory and wave function theory investigation on the geometrical and electronic properties of AlAu n 0/-(n=2-4) clusters has been performed in this work. AlAu n-anions prove to possess ground states of the V-shaped C2v AlAu2 - , umbrella-shaped C3v AlAu3- , and perfect tetrahedral T d AlAu4- , while their neutrals favor the V-shaped C2v AlAu2 , perfect planar triangular D3h AlAu3 , and severely distorted C s AlAu4 , respectively. Aluminum aurides appear to be analogous to the corresponding aluminum hydrides, expect C s AlAu4 . Molecular orbitals (MOs) analyses also support this conclusion. Detailed orbital analyses indicate that Au 6s makes 94-96% and Au 5d makes 6-4% contribution to the Au-based orbitals in Al-Au bonds, which is smaller than the BAu n0/- series, partially reflecting the relativistic effect of gold. The one-electron detachment energies of the anions and characteristic stretching vibrational frequencies of Al-Au bonds between 100-400 cm -1 have been calculated to facilitate future experimental characterization of these clusters.

Theoretical Study on Intermolecular Interactions and Thermodynamic Properties of Dimethylnitroamine Clusters

Ab initio SCF and Mφller-Plesset correlation correction methods in combination with counterpose procedure for BSSE correction have been applied to the theroetical studying of dimethylnitroamine and its dimers and trimers.Three optimized stable dimers and two trimers have been obtained.The corrected binding energies of the most stable dimer and trimer were predicted to be -24.68kJ/mol and -47.27kJ/mol,respectively at the MP2/6-31G^*//HF/6-31G^* level.The proportion of correlated interation energies to their total interaction energies for all clusters was at least 29.3 percent,and the BSSE of ΔE(MP2) was at least 10.0kJ/mol.Dispersion and/or electrostatic force were dominant in all clusters.There exist cooperative effects in both the chain and the cyclic trimers.The vibrational frequencies associated with N-O stretches or wags exhibit slight red shifts,but the modes associated with the motion of hydrogen atoms of the methyl group show somewhat blue shifts with respect to those of monomer.Thermodynamic properties of dimethylnitroamine and its clusters at different temperatures have been calculated on the basis of vibrational analyses.The changes of the Gibbs free energies for the aggregation from monomer to the most stable dimer and trimer were predicted to be 14.37kJ/mol and 30.40kJ/mol,respectively,at 1 atm and 298.15K.
