AbstractWe studied oxygen migration in calcia-stabilized cubic zirconia (CSZ) using density functional theory. A Ca atom was substituted for a Zr atom in a 2×2×2 ZrO2 cubic supercell, and an oxygen vacancy was produced to satisfy the charge neutrality condition. We found that the formation energies of an oxygen vacancy, as a function of its location with respect to the Ca atom, were varied. The relative formation energies of the oxygen vacancies located at the first-, second-, third-, and fourth-nearest-neighbors were 0.0, −0.07, 0.19, and 0.19 eV, respectively. Therefore, the oxygen vacancy located at the second-nearest-neighbor site of the Ca atom was the most favorable, the oxygen vacancy located at the first-nearest-neighbor site was the second most favorable, and the oxygen vacancies at the third- and fourth-nearest-neighbor sites were the least favorable. We also calculated the energy barriers for the oxygen vacancy migration between oxygen sites. The energy barriers between the first and the second nearest sites, the second and third nearest sites, and the third and fourth nearest sites were 0.11, 0.46, and 0.23 eV, respectively. Therefore, the oxygen vacancies favored the first- and second-nearest-neighbor oxygen sites when they drifted under an electric field.

The interaction of cucurbiturils (Q6, Q7, and Q8) with Ca and Ba chlorides and iodides are studied for the first time by density functional theory. The thermodynamic parameters for the formation of host–guest complexes are calculated. The structures of complexes of Q6 and Q7 with one and two guest molecules are established. The energy parameters for the transfer of Be2+ and Ba2+ cations from an aqueous solution into the cavity of Q7 containing n water molecules are defined. The dependences of the formation energies for complexes Q7WnBe2+ and Q7WnBa2+ on the number of water molecules are shown to be parabolic, with the energy minima at n = 5 and n = 6, respectively. It is found that Q7 can form in an aqueous solution supramolecular complexes with protonated histamine (HA) and neutral histamine in the presence of Ca2+ ions.
