Fe encapsulation by silicon clusters: Ab initio electronic structure calculations
Ab initio electronic structure calculations based on density functional theory are performed for SinFe clusters to determine stable structures. Our results show that these clusters can form the building block for Feencapsulated Si-nanotubes. The Si10Fe and Si12Fe clusters are found to be very stable, exhibiting large charge transfer, and can lead to Si-based nanotubes of the types Si5nFen21 and...
متن کاملElectronic structure and excitations in oligoacenes from ab initio calculations.
Oligoacenes C(4n+2)H(2n+4) (n=2,...,6) are studied using a variety of ab initio methods. Density functional theory (DFT) optimized geometries were in good agreement with experiment. Vertical and adiabatic ionization potentials and electron affinities were computed with DFT and it was found that standard exchange-correlation (xc) functionals underestimate ionization potentials in oligoacenes. Po...
متن کاملElectronic Structure of Silicon Nanowires Matrix from Ab Initio Calculations
An investigation of the model of porous silicon in the form of periodic set of silicon nanowires has been carried out. The electronic energy structure was studied using a first-principle band method-the method of pseudopotentials (ultrasoft potentials in the basis of plane waves) and linearized mode of the method of combined pseudopotentials. Due to the use of hybrid exchange-correlation potent...
متن کاملAb initio electronic structure calculations of solid, solution-processed metallotetrabenzoporphyrins
An ab initio study of the electronic structures of solid metallotetrabenzoporphyrins (MTBPs) utilized in organic transistors and photovoltaics is presented. Band structures, densities of states, and orbitals are calculated for H2, Cu, Ni, and Zn core substitutions of the unit cell of solid TBP, as deposited via soluble precursors that are thermally annealed to produce polycrystalline, semicondu...
متن کاملApproximate ab initio calculations of electronic structure of amorphous silicon
We report on ab initio calculations of electronic states of two large and realistic models of amorphous silicon generated using a modified version of the Wooten-Winer-Weaire algorithm and relaxed, in both cases, with a Keating and a modified Stillinger-Weber potentials. The models have no coordination defects and a very narrow bond-angle distribution. We compute the electronic density-of-states...
