This study is built on density functional calculations in combination with the non-equilibrium Green's function, and we probe the thermoelectric transport mechanisms through C60molecules anchored to Al nano-electrodes in three different ways, such as, the planar, pyramidal, and asymmetric surfaces.

First principles density functional calculations have been performed for a number of Al(100) twisted interfaces with the purpose to investigate the most stable atomic structures. Orientation dependence of interface energy normalized to bulk is established and discussed. The obtained results can be used to model grain growth in molecular dynamics studies.

We systematically investigated the structural stability and electronic properties of silicene-like nanotubes by potassium atoms encapsulated using density functional theory. The calculations show that all the structures of KnSi8(n+1) (n=2-12) nanowires are stable, the structural stable is proportional to the lengths of the nanowires. Electronic population analysis shows that K atoms gain electrons and Si atoms lose electrons as a whole, some electrons transferred from Si to K atoms. Because the peaks of d levels in DOS are contribution from the 3d hybridization levels of K and Si atoms, the magnetic moments derived from the orbitals hybridization. Maybe these kinds of nanowires will play an important role in spintronics and nanoelectronics.

A series of transition-metal-doped Fe1−xMxCo(PO4)4(010) and Fe3Co1−xMx(PO4)4(010) electro-catalyst surfaces (with M = Mn, Os, Ru, Rh and Ir) have been modelled via density-functional theory (DFT) to gauge their oxygen-evolution reactions (OER).
