ZnO has received considerable attention since it has promising applications in electronic devices. Although many studies have explored the potential of ZnO as a promising material, the precise role of geometric in ZnO remains unclear. This study deals with the electronic structure of the ZnO monolayer using density functional theory (DFT). The DFT was used to investigate the band structure and density of states of the ZnO monolayer. It is observed that the structural change of ZnO from bulk to monolayer increases the bandgap by 1.84 eV without changes its natural characteristic. Moreover, This study provides information about the properties of the ZnO monolayer and its potential in electronic and magnetic devices application.

ABSTRACTEpitaxially grown oxide superlattices are attracting considerable attention due to their unusual properties and possible applications ranging from sensors to electronic devices [1]. We report a first-principles study of interfaces in the epitaxial LaAlO3/SrTiO3 system within density functional theory. We consider the electronic structure of the n-type interface, and compute the band alignment

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.
