Our recently proposed theoretical formulation based on Bethe–Salpeter G(0)W(0) methodology is applied here to explore the quasiparticle and optical spectra of anthracene (C(14)H10) placed close to a metallic surface. Special attention is paid to explore how the energy shift and decay width of the low-lying anthracene bright excitons p, α and β depend on the type of the adjacent surface (describ...

Gold nanoclusters have the tunable optical absorption property, and are promising for cancer cell imaging, photothermal therapy and radiotherapy. First-principle is a very powerful tool for design of novel materials. In the present work, structural properties, band gap engineering and tunable optical properties of Ag-doped gold clusters have been calculated using density functional theory. The ...

As cancer is the top killer diseases in the world, the scientists and researchers have been searching the new drugs and remedy methods. Most of the anticancer drugs are organic compounds which were approved by the FDA while metallodrugs are very rare. In the present time, some palladium and rhodium complexes are going to use as anticancer molecules. The palladium (II) complex has higher antican...

The geometric and electronic structures of all-trans polyacetylene (PA) molecule in neutral, cationic, and anionic states have been studied theoretically by density functional theory method at the B3LYP/6-31+G* level. The results show that both the geometric and electronic structures of the PA molecule are sensitive to the external electric field (EF). For neutral PA molecule, with the increase...

The electronic structure and photophysical properties of (C=C)TTP(2+) (TTP = tetra-p-tolylporphyrin) were scrutinized by using quantum mechanical calculations and transient absorption spectroscopic measurements. When compared to a metalloporphyrin, the presence of the C=C unit in (C=C)TTP(2+) causes a splitting of the degenerate LUMO and a large decrease in the HOMO-LUMO gap, while the 2+ charg...

Molecular orbital calculations reveal that acyl and silyl radicals add to numerous types of pi-systems through simultaneous SOMO-LUMO and LUMO-HOMO interactions of the radical with the radicalophile respectively.

the research in the short-chain organic -conjugated molecules has become one of the most interesting topics in the fields of chemistry. these compounds have become the most promising materials for the optoelectronic device technology. the use of low band gap materials is a viable method for better harvesting of the solar spectrum and increasing its efficiency. the control of the band gap of th...

This paper reports the synthesis, characterization, photophysical and structural properties of the homologous series of good emitting pentacoordinated GaQ'2L complexes 1-3, where Q' is 2-methyl-quinolin-8-olate and L is a phenolate substituted in para position with respect to the oxygen donor atom. A combined approach between the experimental structural analysis (i.e. the molecular fragments in...

In this study interaction of phenothiazine sulfur dye with (5, 5) armchair open-end boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) in interaction (with a length of 7 Å) was investigated. The impacts of the estereoelectronic effect associated with donor-acceptor electron delocalizations, dipole-dipole interactions and total steric exchange energies on the structural and electronic properties and reactivity of ...

Structural, electronic and photovoltaic properties of pyrrole-furan copolymer incorporated with several electron-donating groups (EDGs) electron-withdrawing (EWGs) were investigated using density functional theory (DFT) time-dependent (TD-DFT). The intramolecular hydrogen bonding between the N…H site pyrrole O furan enhances a coplanar structure derivatives. substituted -NO2 shows significantly...
