abstract

first-principle calculations were carried out to investigate the adsorption of co over cun nanoclusters. the structural, spectroscopic and electronic properties like optimized geometries, homo (highest occupied molecular orbital) and lumo (lowest unoccupied molecular orbital) energy levels, binding energy, adsorption energy, vibrational frequency and density of states (doss) of the pure cun nanoclusters, and cunco complexes in their ground state were thoroughly analyzed. the co adsorbed on the cun nanoclusters showed a stretch frequency at 1950-2052 cm-1, which was red-shifted relative to that of gas-phase co (2143 cm-1). this red-shift was believed to arise from the charge transfer from the cu metal d states to the co antibonding 2π* level. the co adsorption on the cu nanoclusters was chemisorption in nature with the cu–c bond length (adsorption height) in the range of 1.85-1.92 å.

Computational study of electronic, spectroscopic, and chemical properties of (CdO)n (n=1-7) nanoclusters as a transparent conducting oxide

An ab initio study has been performed for the electronic, spectroscopic, and chemical properties of the most stable configuration of the (CdO)n nanoclusters by employing B3LYP-DFT/LanL2DZ method. Different isomers were optimized to obtain structural stability and numerous chemical parameters such as dipole moment, ionization potential, etc. We report here the vibrational frequencies of the most...

Size Evolution Study of the Electronic and Magnetic Properties of MgO Nanoclusters

Magnesium oxide nanoclusters have attracted much attention due to their potential applications to catalysis and novel optoelectronic materials. In the present study, we have studied the electronic and magnetic properties of the stoichiometric magnesium oxide nanoclusters (MgO)n  for n = 2-20. Although the binding energy increases with the size of the cluster, it  re...
