Based on the density functional theory, the adsorption and decomposition of NOx (x = 1, 2) on Mo (110) surface are studied with first-principles calculations. Results show that the stable structures of NO2/Mo (110) are MoNO2 (T, μ1-N), MoNO2 (H, μ3-N, O, O′), MoNO2 (S, η2-O, O′), and MoNO2 (L, η2-O, O′). The corresponding adsorption energies for the structures are −3.83 eV, −3.40 eV, −2.81 eV, and −2.60 eV, respectively. Besides, the stable structures of NO/Mo (110) are MoNO (H, μ1-N), MoNO (H, μ2-N, O), and MoNO (H, η1-N) with the corresponding adsorption energies of −3.75 eV, −3.57 eV, and −3.01 eV, respectively. N and O atoms are easily adsorbed at the hollow sites on Mo (110) surfaces, and their adsorption energies reach −7.02 eV and −7.70 eV, respectively. The preferable decomposition process of MoNO2 (H, μ3-N, O, O′) shows that the first and second deoxidation processes need to overcome energy barriers of 0.11 eV and 0.64 eV, respectively. All these findings indicate that NO2 is relatively easy to dissociate on Mo (110) surface.

Atomic adsorptions of N, C and O on silicene and molecular adsorptions of N2 and CO on silicene have been investigated using the density functional theory (DFT) calculations. For the atomic adsorptions, we find that the N atom has the most stable adsorption with a higher adsorption energy of 8.207 eV. For the molecular adsorptions, we find that the N2 molecule undergoes physisorption while the CO molecule undergoes chemisorption, the corresponding adsorption energies for N2 and CO are 0.085 and 0.255 eV, respectively. Therefore, silicene exhibits more reactivity towards the CO adsorption than the N2 adsorption. The differences of charge density and the integrated charge calculations suggest that the charge transfer for CO adsorption ([Formula: see text]0.015[Formula: see text]) is larger than that for N2 adsorption ([Formula: see text]0.005[Formula: see text]). This again supports that CO molecule is more active than N2 molecule when they are adsorbed onto silicene.

The density functional theory calculations are applied for C20 cage fullerenes. Furan, pyrole, and phenylvinyle monomers are made to interact with a C20 cage at the same C position. An electric field was applied with varying strength. Computations were carried out for all cases at the B3LYP/6-31G* level. The structure, energetic, and relative stabilities of the compounds were compared with each other and analyzed. In addition, the electric field dependent and independent electronic transition spectra of the proposed stable neutral C20 cage are investigated.

We present first-principles calculations of the structural, electronic and magnetic properties of Gd-doped [Formula: see text] based on the density functional theory within [Formula: see text] schemes. It is found that Gd atom favors substituting for Al site. Compared with undoped [Formula: see text], the Gd-doped [Formula: see text] has become an indirect band gap semiconductor of reduced band gap. The magnetic moment [Formula: see text] per molecule mainly comes from Gd ion with little contribution from the Ga, Al and N atoms. It is confirmed that the ferromagnetic configuration is stable for [Formula: see text]. It is found also that there is hybridization between the forbital of the Gd atom and the [Formula: see text] orbital of the N atom.

The adsorption of Cl on the γ-TiAl (100) surface is studied by using the first-principles calculations based on the density-functional theory. The calculated result show that the most stable site for Cl adsorption is the four-fold-hollow site denoted by HFa. The binding energy per Cl atom increases when the coverage is more than 0.75ML. The Cl atoms are more likely to interact with the Ti atoms than the Al atoms from not only the electronic structure but also the atomic structure.

The present study deals with first-principles calculations of the thermal properties of ZnTe in the two phases namely, zinc-blende and wurtzite. The calculations are mainly performed using the density functional theory with the local density approximation and response-function calculations. The full phonon dispersions throughout the Brillouin zone are presented. The temperature dependence of the lattice parameters, bulk modulus, entropy and heat capacity are examined and discussed. Our findings agree reasonably well with those available in the literature.
