Is There a Bridge between ab Initio and Semiempirical Theories
efficient cyclization upon irradiation in acetonitrile to produce the spirocyclic enol ethers or esters 56-59. The ease of formation of the salts coupled with the exceptional chemical efficiencies and structural outcomes of these cyclizations indicates that this methodology will have synthetic utility. The results also demonstrate the importance of trialkylsilyl substituents in electrontransfer...
متن کاملAb initio study of ferroelectricity in BaTiO3 nanowires
We present a density-functional theory study of finite-size effects in stoichiometric and nonstoichiometric BaTiO3 nanowires of varying cross-sectional sizes and sidewall terminations. The tendencies for axial, transverse, and toroidal ferroelectric polarization instabilities in these nanowires have been characterized and possible driving forces underlying these behaviors have been identified. ...
متن کاملCombining ab initio and density functional theories with semiempirical methods
For large reactive systems, the calculation of energies can be simplified by treating the active part with a high-level quantum mechanical ~QM! ~ab initio or density functional! approach and the environment with a less sophisticated semiempirical ~SE! approach, as an improvement over the widely used hybrid quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical ~QM/MM! methods. An example is the interaction be...
متن کاملAb initio vibrations in nonequilibrium nanowires
We review recent results on electronic and thermal transport in two different quasi one-dimensional systems: Silicon nanowires (SiNW) and atomic gold chains. For SiNW’s we compute the ballistic electronic and thermal transport properties on equal footing, allowing us to make quantitative predictions for the thermoelectric properties, while for the atomic gold chains we evaluate microscopically ...
متن کاملAb initio finite-temperature excitons.
The coupling with the lattice vibrations is shown to drastically modify the state-of-the-art picture of the excitonic states based on a frozen-atom approximation. The zero-point vibrations renormalize the bare energies and optical strengths. Excitons acquire a nonradiative lifetime that decreases with increasing temperature. The optical brightness turns out to be strongly temperature-dependent ...
