in this work, we report results of calculations based on the density functional theory of different species metal-ozone, containing mercury, silver and gold. the chosen species range from small molecules and large transition-metal containing ozone with mercury, silver and gold complexes. a comparative analysis of the description of the metal-oxygen bond obtained by different methodologies is pr...

objective(s): first principles calculations were performed to study four multiple sclerosis drugs namely, ampyra, fingolimod, mitoxantrone and eliprodil in gas and liquid phases using density functional theory (dft). computational chemistry simulations were carried out to compare calculated quantum chemical parameters for ampyra, fingolimod, mitoxantrone and eliprodil. materials and methods: al...

one main group of organic chemistry is related to the aromatic compounds. in the present work, we replaced the ch group of benzene by silicon and nitrogen analogues. then, density functional theory (dft) calculations were carried out for six-membered heterocyclic si-n aromatic rings. full geometry optimizations were performed in gas-phase, and at b3lyp level using 6-311++g(d,p) and cbsb7 basis ...

density functional theory (dft) calculations were performed to investigate the properties of planar, tubular and conical forms of silicon nanostructures. the evaluated parameters including averaged bond lengths, binding energies, gap energies and dipole moments were then evaluated for the optimized models of study. the results indicated that the bond lengths between silicon atoms are different ...

graphyne and graphdiyne families of flat carbon (sp2/sp) networks with high degrees of π-conjunction are attracting much attention due to their promising electronic, optical, and mechanical properties. in the present investigation we have studied the structural, mechanical, electrical and optical properties of halogenated graphdiyne and graphyne. the optical spectra of pure and halogenated stru...

the electronic and structural properties of pristine and carbon doped (c-doped) boron nitride nano-ribbons(bnnrs) have been studied employing density functional theory (dft) calculations. total energies, gapenergies, dipole moments, and quadrupole coupling constants (qcc) have been calculated in the optimizedstructures of the investigated bnnrs. the results indicated that the stability and gap ...

despite a spate of interest in the study of the introductions of scholarly articles, thefocal genre of knowledge construction, research is yet to reach conclusive answers onthe nature of this genre. thus, the present study analyzed research articleintroductions, aiming to explore how the process of knowledge construction isachieved by iranian and international writers of english research articl...

density functional theory (dft) calculations were performed to investigate the effects of a carbon nanotube (cnt) on the properties of the fluorouracil (f-uracil) anticancer drug. to achieve the purpose, a molecular model including both of f-uracil and cnt molecules was created to represent the cnt@f-uracil compound. the optimized parameters indicated that the new compound could show new proper...
