Unexpected Transformation

Using the density functional theory, we systematically calculated the stability, electronic, and optical properties of monolayer and multilayer blue phosphorus. The results show the structures are all dynamically stable, and the gaps decrease with an increase of the number of layers. An unexpected transformation from indirect to direct band gaps is also observed as the tensile strain increases. In addition, the optical properties indicate the optical absorption peak of the material is in the ultraviolet region.

The structural and optical properties of C-doped and C-F colonel Zoo compounds are investigated by using a first principle method with the plane wave pseudopotential calculations, based on the density functional theory(DFT), within generalized-gradient approximation (GGA). We discuss the structural properties by comparison with C-Al and C-Ga doped systems and the calculated results demonstrate that the c/a is smaller than C doped ZnO when incorporating F into the system and C-F codoping causes a smaller lattice mismatch compared with the C-Al codoped ZnO. Moreover, we focus on the complex dielectric function in order to investigate the optical properties. By analysing the results, we remark that the absorption edge shift the lower energy region(red shift) when incorporating C-F into ZnO compound.

AbstractThe structural, electronic and optical properties of (AlSb)m/(GaSb)n (m-n: 1-1, 2-2, 1-3 and 3-1) superlattices are investigated within the density functional theory (DFT) by using the last version of the first principles full potential linear muffin tin orbital method (FP-LMTO) as implemented in LmtART 7.0 code. The exchange and correlation potential is treated by the local density approximation (LDA) for the total energy calculations. Our calculations of the band structure show that the superlattices (n ≠ 1) have a direct band gap Γ-Γ. The optical constants, including the dielectric function ϵ(w), the refractive index n(w) and the reflectivity R(w) are calculated and discussed.

Calculation Results

The electronic structures and optical properties of pure, Ag-doped and S-doped α-Fe2O3 were studied using density functional theory (DFT). The calculation results show that the structure of α-Fe2O3 crystal changes after Ag and S doping, which leads to the different points of the high symmetry of Ag-doped and S-doped α-Fe2O3 with that of pure α-Fe2O3 in the energy band, as well as different Brillouin paths. In addition, the band gap of α-Fe2O3 becomes smaller after Ag and S doping, and the optical absorption peak shifts slightly toward the short wavelength, with the increased peak strength of S/α-Fe2O3 and the decreased peak strength of Ag/α-Fe2O3. However, the optical absorption in the visible range is enhanced after Ag and S doping compared with that of pure α-Fe2O3 when the wavelength is greater than 380 nm, and the optical absorption of S-doped α-Fe2O3 is stronger than that of Ag-doped α-Fe2O3.

The reflectivity, loss function, refractive index, extinction coefficient and dielectric function of the LaNi5and LaNi4.5Sn0.5intermetallic compounds are investigated through the plane-wave pseudo-potential method based on the density functional theory. The effects of Sn impurity are discussed and some interesting features are found in the low frequency region. Some important optical properties such as static dielectric constant and static refractive index are obtained. The equation [n (0)]2=ε1(0)is satisfied according to our calculation, which indicates that our results are correct and reasonable. Nevertheless, the calculated results need to be testified in the future due to the lack of experimental data.

Our theoretical study of stability and reactivity was carried out on six (06) molecules of a series of pyrimidine tetrazole hybrids (PTH) substituted with H, F, Cl, Br, OCH3 and CH3 atoms and groups of atoms using the density function theory (DFT). Analysis of the thermodynamic formation quantities confirmed the formation and existence of the series of molecules studied. Quantum chemical calculations at the B3LYP / 6-311G (d, p) level of theory determined molecular descriptors. Global reactivity descriptors were also determined and analyzed. Thus, the results showed that the compound PTH_1 is the most stable, and PTH_5 is the most reactive and nucleophilic. Similarly, the compound PTH_4 is the most electrophilic. The analysis of the local descriptors and the boundary molecular orbitals allowed us to identify the preferred atoms for electrophilic and nucleophilic attacks.

Experimental Values

In this research, first-principles calculations were carried out within the density functional theory (DFT) framework, using LDA and GGA, in order to study the structural, elastic, electronic and thermal properties of InAs in the zinc-blende structure. The results of the structural properties (a, B0, ) agree with the theoretical and experimental results reported by other authors. Additionally, the elastic properties, the elastic constants (C11, C12 and C44), the anisotropy coefficient (A) and the predicted speeds of the sound ( , , and ) are in agreement with the results reported by other authors. In contrast, the shear modulus (G), the Young's modulus (Y) and the Poisson's ratio (v) show some discrepancy with respect to the experimental values, although, the values obtained are reasonable. On the other hand, it is evident the tendency of the LDA and GGA approaches to underestimate the value of the band-gap energy in semiconductors. The thermal properties (V, , θD yCV) of InAs, calculated using the quasi-harmonic Debye model, are slightly sensitive as the temperature increases. According to the stability criteria and the negative value of the enthalpy of formation, InAs is mechanically and thermodynamically stable. Therefore, this work can be used as a future reference for theoretical and experimental studies based on InAs.

The Density Functional Theory

The electronic structure and optical properties of Cu-doped SnS2with Sn-substituted content of 0, 12.5 and 37.5 at.% were successfully calculated by the first principles plane-wave pseudopotentials based on the density functional theory. It is found that the intermediate belts appear near the Fermi level and the energy band gap becomes narrower after the doping of the Cu atoms. The absorption peaks show a remarkable redshift and the absorption region broadens relatively after introducing acceptor impurity level. When Sn atoms of 37.5 at% were substituted by Cu, the optical absorption coefficient is significantly improved in the frequency range below 5.58 eV and over 8.13 eV.
