Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed on a new family of mono- and bimetallic complexes, containing 4,8-([10]paracyclophane)-1,5-dihydro-s-indacene as the bridging ligand between the two metallic centers and different ancillary ligands. The s-indacene was blocked by substitution of the central benzene ring with the [10]paracyclophane to obtain the syn-conformations. This would force the metallic centers to be close together. It is proposed, due to the calculated molecular and electronic properties such as the reactivity indexes, the delocalized nature of the s-indacenyl ligand, and the electron-rich metals, that these systems could be reactive in a catalytic reaction. The results indicate that the systems with Rh and Re holding ancillary ligands such as bipy and CO show the best properties to be active in a chemical reaction. In this sense, by the assessed geometrical and electronic properties, when compared with a previously reported system, these complexes could be candidates for the reduction of CO2 to oxalate.

By performing density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we demonstrate that periodically repeating heterostructures of zigzag borophene nanoribbons (BNR) of different widths can form stable borophene superlattice (BSL). The energy band structures of BSL can be modulated through modifying the width and length of the segments. A metal-semiconductor transition can be obtained when the length of each segment is lengthened, whereas, the magnetism of BSL is influenced by the width of the segments. In those magnetic systems, the magnetic moments are mainly localized on protruding B atoms located at the edge, while no magnetic moments occur in the center B atoms. The hydrogenated BNR and BSL are further investigated. The hydrogenation can modify the electronic properties of BNR and BSL as well as quench the magnetism. All hydrogenated BNR and BSL are non-magnetic. Our results indicate that great potential exists in these systems for borophene utilization in nanoelectronics and spintronics.

Extensive studies of the geometric structures, stabilities and electronic properties of gallium nitride (GaN)n tubelike clusters and single-walled GaN nanotubes (GaNNTs) were carried out using density-functional theory (DFT) calculations. A family of stable tubelike structures with Ga–N alternating arrangement was observed when n≥8 and their structural units (four-membered rings (4MRs) and six-membered rings (6MRs)) obey the general developing formula. The size-dependent properties of the frontier molecular orbital surfaces explain why the long and stable tubelike clusters can be obtained successfully. They also illustrate the reason why GaNNTs can be synthesized experimentally. Our results also reveal that the single-walled GaNNTs, which as semiconductors with a large bandgap, can be prepared by using the proper assembly of tubelike clusters.
