Ab initio theoretical computations have been performed for RhN2, Rh+N2, Rh(N2)2, and Rh+(N2)2 species. The computed vibrational frequencies and binding-energy trends are in qualitative accord with prior FTIR studies of N2 interacting with supported Rh films. Computations of the type described herein should be useful in aiding the assignment of observed infrared bands to specific surface species in future work.

In this contribution we report on the theoretical study of basic vacancy-like defects in cubic zirconia and yttria stabilized zirconia. In particular, we concentrate on oxygen vacancy, zirconium vacancy and oxygen vacancy – yttrium complex. Relaxed atomic configurations of studied defects are obtained by means of an ab initio pseudopotential method within the supercell approach. Positron characteristics, like positron lifetime and binding energy to defects, are calculated using self-consistent electron densities and potentials taken from ab initio calculations.

AbstractThe reactions of BF + OH and BO + HF are critical reactions in the reaction mechanism of fluorine-enriched boron combustion.1 In this study, ab initio multiconfigurational methods have been used to calculate energies, optimized geometries, harmonic vibrational frequencies and zero-point energies for reactants, products and intermediates of these reactions. Results for the following reactive pathways will be discussed:

Our theoretical study aims to the way of obtain C3H4O+ fragments laser-induced by Cycloheptanone ion (C7H12O+ ) excited state and gives out a result with proved and directed significance for the corresponding experiments. Using the CIS(Configuration Interaction with Single Substitute) method, calculated Cycloheptanone ion excited state structure and vibrational frequencies.

Based on cluster model, we have calculated the fundamental vibrational frequencies of rutile by combining ab initio method and Wilson’s GF-matrix method. In the calculation, we have introduced the concept of environment factor α to correct the force field of the cluster model. The results of calculation are in good agreement to the experimental data and the normal modes give us clear physical picture of the crystal vibration.
