Using density functional theory (DFT), we have investigated the stability and electronic structure of lithium (Li) adsorbed in triplet form of (5.0) carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and (5.0) boron nitrogen nanotubes (BNNTs). We have mainly found that three (5.0) tubes are covalently connected. The triplet form is an energetically stable semiconductor. Li atom can be chemically adsorbed in the triplet form of nanotubes (NTs). Meanwhile, upon the adsorption of Li, the triplet form convert into metal. Hence, the triplet form can improve reactivity and sensitivity of NTs to Li significantly.

Using plane-wave ultrasoft pseudopotential method based on first-principles density functional theory (DFT), the adsorption of Cs atom on As-rich GaAs(001)[Formula: see text]([Formula: see text]) reconstruction phase and Ga-rich GaAs(001)([Formula: see text]) reconstruction phase are investigated. The adsorption energy, work function, dipole moment, ionicity, band structure and density of state (DOS) of Cs adsorbed GaAs [Formula: see text]([Formula: see text]) and ([Formula: see text]) models are calculated. The stability and electronic structure of Cs adsorbed GaAs [Formula: see text]([Formula: see text]) and ([Formula: see text]) models are compared. Result shows that [Formula: see text]([Formula: see text]) phase is stable than the ([Formula: see text]) phase and after that Cs adsorption [Formula: see text]([Formula: see text]) phase is more beneficial for photoemission.

The influence of copper(I) halides CuX (X = Cl, Br, I) on the electronic structure of N,N′-diisopropylcarbodiimide (DICDI) and N,N′-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) was investigated by means of computational DFT (density functional theory) methods. The coordination of the considered carbodiimides occurs by one of the nitrogen atoms, with the formation of linear complexes having a general formula of [CuX(carbodiimide)]. Besides varying the carbon–nitrogen bond lengths, the thermodynamically favourable interaction with Cu(I) reduces the electron density on the carbodiimides and alters the energies of the (NCN)-centred, unoccupied orbitals. A small dependence of these effects on the choice of the halide was observable. The computed Fukui functions suggested negligible interaction of Cu(I) with incoming nucleophiles, and the reactivity of carbodiimides was altered by coordination mainly because of the increased electrophilicity of the {NCN} fragments.
