The photophysical properties of a series of nitrated and halogenated phosphorus tritolylcorrole complexes were studied in dichloromethane solvent by using the density functional theory. Particular emphasis was given to the absorption spectra, the energy gap between the excited singlet and triplet states, and the magnitude of the spin-orbit couplings for a series of possible intersystem crossing channels between those excited states. The proposed study provides a better description of the photophysical properties of these systems while giving insights into their possible use as photosensitizers in photodynamic therapy.

Three centrosymmetric diketopyrrolopyrroles possessing either two 2-(2′-methoxyphenyl)benzothiazole or two 2-(2′-methoxyphenyl)benzoxazolo-thiophene scaffolds were synthesized in a straightforward manner, and their photophysical properties were investigated. Their emission was significantly bathochromically shifted as compared with that of simple DPPs reaching 650 nm. Judging from theoretical calculations performed with time-dependent density functional theory, in all three cases the excited state was localized on the DPP core and there was no significant CT character. Consequently, emission was almost independent of solvents’ polarity. DPPs possessing 2,5-thiophene units vicinal to DPP core play a role in electronic transitions, resulting in bathochromically shifted absorption and emission. Interestingly, as judged from transient absorption dynamics, intersystem crossing was responsible for the deactivation of the excited states of DPPs possessing para linkers but not in the case of dye bearing meta linker.

Abstract This paper is a new step in helping the treatment of coronavirus by improving the performance of chloroquine drug. For this purpose, we propose a complex of chloroquine drug with graphene nanoribbon (GNR) scheme. We compute the structural and electrical properties and absorption of chloroquine (C18H26ClN3) and GNR complex using the density functional theory (DFT) method. By creating a drug and GNR complex, the density of states of electrons increases and the energy gap decreases compared to the chloroquine. Also, using absorption calculations and spectrums such as infrared and UV-Vis spectra, we showed that GNR is a suitable structure for creating chloroquine drug complex. Our results show that the dipole moment, global softness and electrophilicity for the drug complex increases compared to the non-complex state. Our calculations can be useful for increasing performance and reducing the side effects of chloroquine, and thus can be effective in treating coronavirus.

Semiconductor Behavior

Chemical doping is a promising route to engineering and controlling the electronic properties of the zigzag graphene nanoribbon (ZGNR). By using the first-principles of the density functional theory (DFT) calculations at the B3LYP/ 6-31G, which implemented in the Gaussian 09 software, various properties, such as the geometrical structure, DOS, HOMO, LUMO infrared spectra, and energy gap of the ZGNR, were investigated with various sites and concentrations of the phosphorus (P). It was observed that the ZGNR could be converted from linear to fractal dimension by using phosphorus (P) impurities. Also, the fractal binary tree of the ZGNR and P-ZGNR structures is a highlight. The results demonstrated that the energy gap has different values, which located at this range from 0.51eV to 1.158 eV for pristine ZGNR and P-ZGNR structures. This range of energy gap is variable according to the use of GNRs in any apparatus. Then, the P-ZGNR has semiconductor behavior. Moreover, there are no imaginary wavenumbers on the evaluated vibrational spectrum confirms that the model corresponds to minimum energy. Then, these results make P-ZGNR can be utilized in various applications due to this structure became more stable and lower reactivity.

The B, N, S, Si and P atoms doped single walled (5, 5) carbon nanotubes were studied by density functional theory B3LYP/3-21G (d) with the periodic boundary conditions. The ultra long tube models were calculated and the structures, energies and the band structures were obtained. The N, Si and S doped nanotubes have narrow energy gap with metal conductivity whereas B and P doped nanotubes have overlapped energy gaps with or semi-metal conductivity.

A detailed theoretical study of electronic structure and optical properties of GaN under pressure was performed by the first-principles calculations of plane wave ultra-soft pseudo-potential method based on the density functional theory (DFT). The results indicate that Ga-N bond length becomes shorter and the valence bonds shift towards the low energy while the conduction bands towards high energy, the band gap becomes wider with the pressure increasing, and theoretical studies explained the relationship between the band edges, energy gap of GaN and pressure. In addition, the peak in band was cracked slightly, and the Ga 3d-N 2p hybridization was enhanced.
