Ab initio calculations of the electronic structures of silicon carbide (SiC) nanotubes represented by clusters are presented. The nanotube clusters of chiralities (3,3) and (5,5) are studied using the hybrid density functional B3LYP (Becke’s 3-parameter and the Lee-Yang-Parr exchange-correlation) and LANL2DZ (Los Alamos National Laboratory double ?) and 3-21G* basis sets. Evolution of electronic properties of silicon carbide (SiC) nanotubes (3, 3) and (5,5) with their length is discussed. The results suggest that the electronic properties of nanotubes change for short tubes of unit cells with lengths varying from 1 to 5. However, the properties do not seem to change significantly after this. Therefore, an infinite silicon carbide (SiC) nanotube can be approximated by a nanotube cluster of 5 unit cells.The Himalayan PhysicsVol. 3, No. 3, July 2012Page : 69-73

Using the simplified linear combination of atomic orbitals (LCAO) method in combination with ab initio calculations, we construct a tight-binding (TB) model for two different crystal structures of monolayer gallium: a100- and b010-Gallenene.

The present study reports the theoretical vertical ionization potentials (IPs) for all the valence electrons in six XPY2 molecules by utilizing the corrected orbital energies calculated with three theoretical methods, namely, the ab initio Hartree–Fock (HF), and both the pure and hybrid density functional theory (DFT) methods at, respectively, the BLYP/6-311+G* and B3lYP/6-311+G* levels of theory. Evaluation of the numerical corrections to the orbital energies was achieved by comparisons with the IP values obtained via explicit computation of the energy differences between the neutral molecules and the corresponding radical cations (the ΔSCF method) and shows values from –0.9 to –1.9 eV for the HF, and positive values from 2.9 to 3.9 eV and from 1.8 to 2.4 eV for the pure and hybrid DFT methods, respectively. In contrast to the orbital energies, the ΔSCF method is shown to give consistent values among the three methods, as well as reasonable agreement with the experimental IP values.Key words: ionization potential, phosphorane, Koopmans' theorem, Janak's theorem.
