The electronic structure and the bonding of the title compounds have been investigated using density functional theory within the local density approximation, adding nonlocal corrections to exchange and correlation energy. The çross-ring sulfur-sulfur bond energy in 1,1,5,5-tetramethylbicyclo[3.3.0]-1,5-diphospha-3,7-dithia-2,4,6,8-tetrazocine was estimated to be about 133 kJ/mol. The HOMO of the 1,1,3,5,5-pentamethyl-1,5-diphospha-3,7-dithia-2,4,6,8-tetrazocine anion is mainly localized at the site of the unmethylated sulfur atom and is antibonding with respect to the sulfur—carbon bond of the methylated sulfur atom, which has a relatively weak estimated bond strength of 218 kJ/mol.

This article is a theoritical approach to calculate the electronic structure of undoped- and non-metal anions doped-TiO2-anatase. The objective of the research is to calculate abinitio the band structure and the density of states (DOS) of undoped-, C-, N-, and S-doped TiO2-anatase. Kohn-Sham equations are performed with the density functional theory (DFT) using the local density approximation (LDA) for exchange-correlation functional. The first-principle calculations were done using supercell (2x2x1) methods as implemented within Amsterdam Density Functional (ADF)-BAND version 2014.10. The ab-initio calculation of the band structures show that all samples are direct- and indirect-gap type semiconductor. The band gap of TiO2-anatase with DFT using LDA is 2.43 eV. The addition of C atom at 0.943% in 48 atoms produces width intermediate band about 0.76 eV, which is 0.38 eV above the valence band (VB) and 1.38 eV below the conduction band (CB). The addition of N atom at 1.103% and S atom at 2.478% in the lattice structure of TiO2-anatase resulted in the addition of the VB width to 0.47 eV and 0.11 eV, while the resulting gap between the VB and the CB to 1.97 eV and 2.33 eV, respectively.

The electronic properties of N-doped orthorhombic SrHfO3 have been calculated using the plane-wave ultrasoft pseudopotential technique based on the first-principles density-functional theory with the local density approximation. From the calculated band structure and density of states, the bandgap reduction is observed due to the presence of the N-2p states in the top of valence bands, which leads to red-shift. Moreover, in order to clarify the charge transfer and bonding properties of N-doped orthorhombic SrHfO3, we have calculated and analysed the charge density.

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.

Electronic structure and optical properties of non-metals (N, S, F, P, Cl) -doped cubic NaTaO3 were investigated systematically by density functional theory (DFT). The results showed that the substitution of (N, S, P, Cl) for O in NaTaO3 was effective in narrowing the band-gap relative to the F-doped NaTaO3. The larger red shift of the absorption edge and the higher visible light absorption at about 520 nm were found for the (N and P)-doped NaTaO3. The excitation from the impurity states to the conduction band may account for the red shift of the absorption edge in an electron-deficiency non-metal doped NaTaO3. The obvious absorption in the visible light region for (N and P)-doped NaTaO3 provides an important guidance for the design and preparation of the visible light photoactive materials.
