ThTiO_4~(-/0),Th_2TiO_6~(-/0)和ThTi_2O_6~(-/0)的电子结构和化学成键的密度泛函理论研究

本文采用B3LYP密度泛函理论方法,探究双核、三核掺杂钍氧簇体系ThTiO_4~(-/0)、Th_2TiO_6~(-/0)和ThTi_2O_6~(-/0)的几何构型、电子结构和化学成键等规律,并与等价电子体(TiO_2)-/0n(n=2,3)进行对比,研究掺杂效应对于掺杂体系的结构和成键等性质的影响.结果表明:掺杂钍氧簇与其等价电子体(TiO_2)-/0n(n=2,3)具有类似的键连方式.ThTiO_4~-中单电子占据的位置与Ti2O-4中单电子的所处位置类似,都是被两个金属原子共用,而Th_2 TiO_6~-,Th Ti_2O_6~-以及Ti_3O_6~-中的单电子均处于那个不含端氧的金属原子上.     

DFT Studies on the Stoichiometric Thorium Oxide Clusters(ThO_2)_n(n = 1～5): Electronic and Structural Properties

Density functional theory(DFT) calculations are performed to investigate the electronic and structural properties of the stoichiometric thorium oxide clusters(ThO_2)_n-/0(n = 1～5). Generalized Koopmans' theorem is applied to predict the vertical detachment energies(VDEs)which are used to simulate the anionic photoelectron spectra(PES). Molecular orbital analyses are performed as well to analyze the chemical bonding in these thorium oxide clusters. The results show that the ground states of(ThO_2)_n-/0(n = 1～5) clusters prefer the low-spin structures. With increasing of the cluster size(n), the structure parameters of(ThO_2)_n-/0(n = 1～5) gradually evolve toward bulk thorium oxide species. It shows that both the coordination number and the average bond length increase gradually in(ThO_2)_n-/0(n = 1～5) to approach that of ThO2 bulk. What's more, the vibration frequencies of Th=O double bonds are found to be decreasing along with the increased cluster size.     

ThO+/0/-2不同电荷态对N2O氧化CO反应的影响

本文采用密度泛函理论,对ThO^+/0/-₂团簇参与CO与N₂O间氧化还原反应(CO+N₂O→CO₂+N₂)的机理展开研究,探讨钍氧团簇所带的电荷对该反应的影响.研究表明：ThO^+/0/-₂在反应中主要起传输氧原子的作用,其中ThO⁺₂与CO的反应以及ThO^+/0/-与N₂O的反应都为热力学上的放热反应,而ThO^0/-₂与CO的反应为热力学上的吸热反应.随着电荷态的改变,ThO^+/0/-₂与CO反应的总能垒(E_b)与总驱动力(-ΔG)有较大差异.因此,通过改变ThO₂的电荷态能调节其对CO/N₂O反应的催化活性,综合考虑,ThO⁺₂对...
