AbstractThe structural, nonlinear optical, electronic and thermodynamic properties of andirobin molecule were carried out by density functional theory at the B3LYP, WB97XD level and at the Restricted Hartree–Fock level by employing 6–311G(d,p) basis set. The obtained values of bond lengths, bond angles, 1H NMR and 13C NMR are in good agreement with experimental values. The dipole moment and first static hyperpolarizability show that andirobin can be applied in nonlinear optical devices. HOMO–LUMO energy gap values were found to be greater than 4 eV and lead us to the conclusion that this molecule can be used as insulator in many electronic devices. The thermal energy (E), molar heat capacity at constant volume $$(C_{v}$$ ( C v ) and entropy (S) were also calculated.

This paper presents a systematical analysis of the structure and electronic properties of armchair single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) as well as single-walled silicon carbide nanotubes ( SiCNTs ) by using density functional theory. The geometries of all species were optimized at the B3LYP level of theory using the SVP basis set. The different behavior of C – C bonds "parallel" and "perpendicular" to the nanotube axis has been found. The HOMO–LUMO energy gap, ionization potential, electron affinity, electronegativity and hardness of studied tubes were compared. The influence of both SWCNTs and SiCNTs lengths on their electronic properties has been analyzed.

We investigate the energy band structure, total density of states, the linear, nonlinear optical (NLO) response, and the electron energy-loss spectrum for Li(Nb, Ta)O 3 using first principles calculations based on density functional theory in its local density approximation. Our calculation shows that these compounds have similar structures. The indirect band gaps of 3.39 eV (LiNbO3) and 3.84 eV (LiTaO3) at the Γ–Z direction in the Brillouin zone are found. A simple scissor approximation is applied to adjust the band energy gap from the calculations to match the experimental values. The optical spectra are analyzed and the origins of some of the peaks in the spectra are discussed in terms of calculated electronic structure. Calculations are reported for the frequency-dependent complex second-order NLO susceptibilities [Formula: see text] up to 10 eV and for zero-frequency limit [Formula: see text]. The results are compared with the theoretical calculations and the available experimental data.

In the title compound, C18H12O3S2, synthesized by the Claisen–Schmidt condensation method, the essentially planar chalcone unit adopts an s-cis configuration with respect to the carbonyl group within the ethylenic bridge. In the crystal, weak C—H...π interactions connect the molecules into zigzag chains along the b-axis direction. The molecular structure was optimized geometrically using Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations at the B3LYP/6–311 G++(d,p) basis set level and compared with the experimental values. Molecular orbital calculations providing electron-density plots of HOMO and LUMO molecular orbitals and molecular electrostatic potentials (MEP) were also computed both with the DFT/B3LYP/6–311 G++(d,p) basis set. The experimental energy gap is 3.18 eV, whereas the theoretical HOMO–LUMO energy gap value is 2.73 eV. Hirshfeld surface analysis was used to further investigate the weak interactions present.

In the present work the 3D-supramolecular network is stabilized by N–H…O and O–H…O hydrogen bonds, by O…N interactions involving the organic cation and inorganic anion as checked by Hirshfeld surface analysis. The van der Waals contacts play a key role in the consolidation of the packing of 4-chloro-2-methylanilinium dihydrogenphosphate[4-CMDHP] structure. In order to support experimental results, density functional theory calculations have been performed using B3LYP functional with 3-21 G basis set. All of the obtained theoretical results are in a perfect agreement with the experimental ones. Furthermore, nonlinear optical behavior of 4-CMDHP has been investigated by determining the Hirshfeld surface, density of states and HOMO-LUMO energy gap using the same basis set. Finally, the molecular electrostatic potential surface of 4-CMDHP molecule was simulated and discussed.

In this study, 4-(4,5-Diphenyl-1H-imidazole-2-yl) phenol is successfully synthesized, and its nonlinear optical properties (NLO) are investigated both experimentally and theoretically. Theoretical investigations have been done by using TDDFT and B3LYP functional with usual 6-31+G(d,p) basis set. The results of HOMO-LUMO and NBO analysis show the low energy gap, high total dipole moment, and hyperpolarizabilities (β, γ) as well as the presence of dipolar excited states with relatively significant dipole-moment changes which are linked to the nonlinearity. The z-scan technique confirmed the NLO properties of title compound. The nonlinear absorption coefficient, refractive index, and third-order susceptibility were found to be 4.044 × 10−1 cmW−1, 2.89 × 10−6 cm2W−1 and 2.2627 × 10−6 esu, respectively. The negative sign of n2 indicated the occurrence of self-defocusing nonlinearity. The results show that the title compound can been used as potential NLO material.

Abstract: Theoretical study for calculating the electronic structure of phenanthrene compound and its simplest derivatives with nitro groups in different positions was performed using density functional theory (DFT) based on the hybrid function of three parameters. Lee-Yang-Parr [B3LYP] with 6-31 [d, p] basis set was used to investigate the effect of nitro groups on the electronic properties of phenanthrene compound. All calculations were obtaind by employing the used method using the Gaussian 09 package of programs. The energy gaps, total energies, the energy of HOMO and LUMO, softness, dipole moment, Fermi level, molecular symmetry, electrochemical hardness, electron density, electrostatic potential surfaces and infrared spectra were calculated. The results showed that the electronic properties of phenanthrene molecule are affected by the added nitro group. The total energy, energy gap and the HOMO and LUMO energy decreased compared with the original molecule. The ionization potential (IP), electron affinity (EA) and Fermi level (Ef) are increased compared with the original molecule. Keywords: B3LYP/DFT calculations, Phenanthrene molecule, Nitro group, Energy gap, Ionization potential.

Quantum chemical calculations of energies, geometries, and vibrational wavenumbers of 1,3-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (C17H16O3) in the ground state were carried out by the using ab initio Hartree−Fock and density functional theory (DFT/B3LYP) methods with the 6-311++G** basis set. The difference between the observed and scaled wavenumber values of most of the fundamentals is very small. Theoretical vibrational spectra of the title compound were interpreted by means of potential energies distributions. The theoretical spectrograms for IR spectra of the title compound have been constructed. The analysis of natural bond orbitals shows that the intramolecular hyperconjugative interactions are formed by the orbital overlap between π*(C–C) and π(C–C) bond orbitals, which results in intramolecular charge transfer causing stabilization of the system. The predicted nonlinear optical properties of the title compound are much larger than those of urea. In addition, the analysis of frontier molecular orbitals shows that the title compound has good stability and high chemical hardness.

Organic materials development, especially in terms of nonlinear optical (NLO) performance, has become progressively more significant owing to their rising and promising applications in potential photonic devices. Organic moieties such as carbazole and quinoline play a vital role in charge transfer applications in optoelectronics. This study reports and characterizes the donor–acceptor–donor–π–acceptor (D–A–D–π–A) configured novel designed compounds, namely, Q3D1–Q3D3, Q4D1–Q1D2, and Q5D1. We further analyze the structure–property relationship between the quinoline–carbazole compounds for which density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT (TDDFT) calculations were performed at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level to obtain the optimized geometries, natural bonding orbital (NBO), NLO analysis, electronic properties, and absorption spectra of all mentioned compounds. The computed values of λmax, 364, 360, and 361 nm for Q3, Q4, and Q5 show good agreement of their experimental values: 349, 347, and 323 nm, respectively. The designed compounds (Q3D1–Q5D1) exhibited a smaller energy gap with a maximum redshift than the reference molecules (Q3–Q5), which govern their promising NLO behavior. The NBO evaluation revealed that the extended hyperconjugation stabilizes these systems and caused a promising NLO response. The dipole polarizabilities and hyperpolarizability (β) values of Q3D1–Q3D3, Q4D1-Q1D2, and Q5D1 exceed those of the reference Q3, Q4, and Q5 molecules. These data suggest that the NLO active compounds, Q3D1–Q3D3, Q4D1–Q1D2, and Q5D1, may find their place in future hi-tech optical devices.
