Adsorption of argon and nitrogen in cylindrical pores of MCM-41 materials: application of density functional theory

Adsorption of argon and nitrogen at their respective boiling points in cylindrical pores of MCM-41 type silica-like adsorbents is studied by means of a non-local density functional theory (NLDFT), which is modified to deal with amorphous solids. By matching the theoretical results of the pore filling pressure versus pore diameter against the experimental data, we arrive at a conclusion that the adsorption branch (rather than desorption) corresponds to the true thermodynamic equilibrium. If this is accepted, we derive the optimal values for the solid-fluid molecular parameters for the system amorphous silica-Ar and amorphous silica-N₂, and at the same time we could derive reliably the specific surface area of non-porous and mesoporous silica-like adsorbents, without a recourse to the BET method. This method is then logically extended to describe the local adsorption isotherms of argon and nitrogen in silica-like pores, which are then used as the bases (kernel) to determine the pore size distribution. We test this with a number of adsorption isotherms on the MCM-41 samples, and the results are quite realistic and in excellent agreement with the XRD results, justifying the approach adopted in this paper.     

Shifting the Superparamagnetic Limit of Nanosized Copper Iron Spinel

In this paper we analyze trend of EFG values measured at Cd impurity in a group of semiconducting delafossites with chemical formula CuBO₂ (B = Al, Fe, Cr, Nd). We conclude that this trend reveals one of the most subtle details in electronic spectrum of the compounds: if impurity states are formed within or out of the band gap. In CuAlO₂ and CuFeO₂ the Cd EFG exhibits larger value than in CuCrO₂ and CuNdO₂, when Cd substitutes the Cu atom. This occurs because in the first two compounds the Cd forms shallow band within the gap, and in the second two compounds does not. When Cd occupies the B position it exhibits almost the same EFG in all delafossites. In this case, Cd does not form its states within the gap in none of the compounds. To arrive to these conclusions we analyzed and calculated various systems (Cd-doped CuAlO₂ and CuCrO₂ compounds, fictitious molecules), using the FP-LAPW method.     

A first-principles study of surface and subsurface H on and in Ni(1 1 1): diffusional properties and coverage-dependent behavior

Periodic, self-consistent, density functional theory (GGA-PW91) calculations are performed for both surface and subsurface atomic hydrogen on and in Ni(1 1 1). At a low coverage (θ=0.25 ML), the binding energies (BEs) of a hydrogen atom in surface fcc, subsurface octahedral (first layer), and subsurface octahedral (second layer) sites are −2.89, −2.18, and −2.11 eV, respectively. The activation energy barriers for hydrogen diffusion from the surface to the first subsurface layer and from the first to the second subsurface layer are estimated to be 0.88 and 0.52 eV, respectively. In the entire coverage range studied, hydrogen occupies surface fcc and hcp sites and subsurface octahedral sites. In addition, the magnitude of the BE per hydrogen atom and the magnetization of the nickel slabs both decrease as hydrogen coverage increases. Vibrational frequencies of hydrogen at various surface and subsurface sites are calculated and are in reasonable agreement with experimental data. A phase stability calculation with a 2 × 2 surface unit cell shows that a p(2 × 2)-2H overlayer structure (θ=0.5 ML) and a p(1 × 1)-1H structure (θ=1.0 ML) are stable at low hydrogen pressures, in agreement with numerous experimental results. A very large increase in pressure is required to populate subsurface sites. After such an increase occurs, the first subsurface layer is filled completely.     

B-Theory of Runge-Kutta methods for stiff volterra functional differential equations

B-stability andB-convergence theories of Runge-Kutta methods for nonlinear stiff Volterra functional differential equations (VFDEs) are established which provide unified theoretical foundation for the study of Runge-Kutta methods when applied to nonlinear stiff initial value problems (IVPs) in ordinary differential equations (ODEs), delay differential equations (DDEs), integro-differential equations (IDEs) and VFDEs of other type which appear in practice.     

Quantum-Chemical Study of the Profiles of Reactions that Form Pyrrole Anion N-Adducts with CS<Subscript>2</Subscript> and CO<Subscript>2</Subscript>

The profiles of reactions leading to pyrrole anion N-adducts with CO₂ and CS₂ have been studied by the ab initio (RHF/6-31+G*, MP2/6-31+G*) and density functional (B3LYP/6-31+G*) methods. Addition of the pyrrole anion to the carbon disulfide molecule is accompanied by the appearance of a minimum corresponding to a pre-reaction complex. The transformation of the complex to the N-pyrrolyldithiocarboxylate anion occurs via a low activation barrier, which is due to repolarization of the C=S bonds. The profile of the reaction leading to the pyrrole anion N-adduct with CO₂ does not contain any intermediate stationary points throughout the whole route from reagents to products.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by V.
