Full textLa mia ricerca di dottorato è stata focalizzata sull’indagine di composti Fe2S2, strutturalmente e funzionalmente correlati al sito attivo di [FeFe[-idrogenasi e nitrogenasi. I metodi computazionali , in particolare la Teoria del Funzionale della Densità (DFT), hanno permesso di ottenere informazioni utili riguardo al funzionamento di questi sistemi, in luce del loro impiego come catalizzarori per la produzione di bio fuels. Il cuore della tesi è costituito dallo studio delle [FeFe]-idrogenasi e dei loro complessi biomimetici, la cui struttura e reattività è stata investigata in dettaglio secondo differenti punti di vista. L’attività dei sistemi biomimetici (in contrasto a quello naturale) è affetta da parecchie problematiche, che li rende poco attivi e non reversibili. Infatti, essi catalizzano (con bassi turnover e alte sovratensioni) la reazione di produzione di H2 da protoni ed elettroni, ma sono incapaci (a parte poche eccezioni) di ossidarlo. Alcuni degli aspetti problematici relativi a questi sistemi sono stati quindi investigati per mezzo del DFT. Innanzitutto ne è stato indagato il comportamento ossidativo, la cui conoscenza e controllo sono fondamentali per poter performare efficientemente l’ossidazione di H2. Questa tematica, sebbene la più problematica in quest’ ambito di ricerca, è anche la meno investigata. In particolare si è scoperto che la natura del ponte ditiolato contenuto in questi sistemi è fondamentale per modulare le proprietà redox di questi sistemi, mediante la formazione di interazioni deboli formatesi durante il processo ossidativo. Tuttavia una buona conoscenza delle proprietà redox di questi sistemi non è sufficiente a garantire un buon funzionamento nei confronti dell’ossidazione di idrogeno. Per questo sono stati studiati i quattro step fondamentali del ciclo catalitico, sia prendendo in esame il sito attivo enzimatico sia i suoi biomimetici. Da una comparazione accurata dei risultati ottenute sono emerse differenze che evidenziano il ruolo chiave di alcuni fattori stereo-elettronici, mancanti nei sistemi sintetici. Per quanto riguarda la riduzione protonica invece, a dare H2, una delle cause principali della scarsa efficienza è la formazione di un idruro a ponte come intermedio di protonazione (estremamente stabile) nel ciclo catalitico, il quale non si forma invece nel sistema naturale. Il DFT ha permesso di evidenziare che l’aumento di protofilicità della funzione contenuta nel pendant ditiolato impedisce (rallenta) la formazione di questo intermedio stabile. Inoltre è stato sviluppato un protocollo per rendere questo intermedio (notoriamente poco reattivo) più reattivo rispetto alla sua controparte terminale. Una delle features più importanti del sito attivo è la cosiddetta conformazione “ruotata”, in cui uno dei due Fe espone un sito di coordinazione vacante per il substrato. Questa conformazione è stata ottenuta finora solo transientemente in sistemi biomimetici, per mezzo di trucchi sterici. Durante il mio progetto di dottorato abbiamo progettato razionalmente un sistema biomimetico che (in linea di principio) ha un ground state con conformazione ruotata. Infine, l’ultima parte di dottorato è stata dedicata allo studio delle nitrogenasi, le quali hanno mostrato una rilevante promiscuità di substrato, catalizzando anche la riduzione di CO2 a idrocarburi. Abbiamo quindi studiato l’attivazione di CO2 da parte di biomimetici del tipo F2S2 di nitrogenasi, per verificare se questa promiscuità sia mantenuta anche a livello sintetico.

Full textBioinorganic hybrid nanocomposites, built by connecting inorganic nanostructures, such as TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs), to bioactive molecules (e.g. drugs, proteins, DNA fragments), have been recently used for several biomedical applications, due to their biocompatibility and the possibility of targeting specific cells or of drug delivery. The aim of my project is to study, through density functional theory (DFT) calculations, the interplay between TiO2 surfaces and a bifunctional linker (dopamine, DA), which can efficiently anchor the metal oxide surface but also attach biomolecules. During the first year of PhD, we simulated the adsorption of DA on the flat anatase (101) TiO2 surface, which is a simplified model for faceted NPs, using hybrid DFT calculations. We investigated several adsorption modes and increasing coverage regimes to explore the process of self-assembling both under kinetic and thermodynamic conditions. We found out that the DA ethyl-amino functional group plays a crucial role, interacting with the surface at low coverage and ruling the organization of the self-assembled monolayer at high coverage, when unexpected proton transfers between the protonated TiO2 surface and the DA molecules are observed. During the second year, we investigated the behavior of DA on a more complex, but more realistic, model of TiO2, i.e. the curved surface of a spherical NP. First, we studied the possible adsorption configurations of an isolated DA molecule. For the most stable, we investigated the effect of light irradiation, considering the formation of excitons, the separation of photoexcited holes and electrons, their trapping or recombination. Then, we built a high-coverage model, adsorbing a gradually increasing number of DA and, finally, considering temperature effects through molecular dynamics density functional tight-binding (MD-DFTB). We clarified the effect of the number of adsorbed molecules on the binding energy and on the electronic structure of the system. To this aim, we assessed the validity of a single point DFT calculation on the DFTB geometry to correctly reproduce electronic properties at an acceptable computational cost. In the third year, we studied, through real-time time dependent DFT (TDDFT), the optical properties of DA adsorbed on the flat anatase TiO2 surface. First, we compared the optical spectrum of a DA molecule in vacuum and of bulk TiO2 anatase with previous experimental data. , Then, from the electronic absorption spectrum of different adsorption configurations of DA on the anatase surfaces, at both low and full coverage regimes, we could determine the detailed mechanism of the charge transfer between the molecule and TiO2. Overall, the performed study clarifies various aspects of the interface between DA and the flat or curved TiO2 surfaces, and on its response to light, which will be the basis for future studies where the linkers tether biomolecules.

Full textThe present thesis is focused on the computational treatment of transition metal oxides and classical semiconductors. The interest in these materials is due to their electronic, optical, and magnetic properties, and their wide range of applications in catalysis, electronic devices, and photo-and electro-catalysis. One of the fundamental properties of these materials is the band gap, which determines the optical, electrical, and chemical properties. From a theoretical perspective, the most widely employed methodology to describe the band gap of these materials is the Density Functional Theory (DFT). The estimation of the band gap by DFT with the GGA approach or hybrid functionals is justified for materials that are not highly correlated such as TiO2, ZnO, V2O5, III-V semiconductors, etc. However, when one deals with highly correlated materials, it is necessary to introduce methods that include many-body effects (electron hopping), such as the GW, and the dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT). In order to solve the problem of the description of highly correlated materials, we started this thesis with the study of transition metal oxides with Mott Hubbard character by using the Charge Transition Level approach (CTLs). From this research, it was found that CTLs approach provides a better description of the band gap of highly correlated materials than those obtained with hybrid functionals and high level of theory methods such as GW and DMFT, where the computed values are compared with experimental measurements. Next, the description and rationalization of the role of quantum confinement on III-V semiconductors through the consideration of (110) surfaces with different thicknesses was studied. The results from quantum confinement indicate that there are two groups of semiconductors, the first one corresponds to semiconductors that are less affected such as the Al-V group, and the second one to semiconductors that are strongly affected such as the In-V group. Then we moved to the computational treatment of composite materials for photocatalytic applications such as the heterojunctions. In a dedicated chapter, some methodological aspects that need to be considered in the design of binary and ternary heterojunctions were provided. In particular, the description of type-II heterojunctions is given since these kinds of interfaces are the most interesting for photocatalysis applications. In this last chapter of the thesis two cases of co-catalysts are described, both based on single atoms catalysts (SACs) for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). First, the effect of different gold nanoparticles size (Single atoms, Nanoclusters, and Nanoparticles) supported on nitrogen-doped graphene is discussed. Second, the formation of two intermediates (MH and HMH) in transition metal oxides adsorbed on different nitrogen-doped graphene supports and molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is described.

Full textRubber nanocomposites generally exhibit poor thermal conductivity, which has been partially enhanced by the addition of thermally conductive fillers, i.e. graphite, carbon black, carbon fibres, ceramic or metal particles. High filler loadings are typically necessary to achieve this target; however, this dramatically alters the mechanical behaviour and the cross-linking density of the final materials. Further, the filler systems currently employed are not able to fulfil the key requirements of high thermal conductivity and remarkable performances, simultaneously. In this context, the PhD research activity aims at design novel fillers suitable for developing rubber nanocomposites with high thermal conductivity and satisfactory mechanical performances. A survey of different conductive nanofillers will be carried out, by investigating in depth the correlations between nanoparticles structure, morphology, dispersion and distribution in the polymer matrix, and final composites properties. The best formulations will be selected and possibly up-scaled in order to provide real technological applications.

Full textComposite materials have attracted the attention of the scientific community due to their outstanding properties and promising applications. Materials interfaces play a crucial role in many of these applications. In the present work of thesis, different types of oxide/C-based layer interfaces have been considered for a quantum chemical investigation. The titanium dioxide surface has been interfaced with both inorganic bidimensional (graphene) and densely packed organic (enediols and silanes) C-based monolayers. The work aims at revealing the peculiar phenomena that occur at the interface, due to the complementary properties of the two components, that might be relevant for catalysis and bio-functionalization. The theoretical investigation is based on two levels of theory: self-consistent charge density-functional tight-binding (SCC-DFTB) and density functional theory (DFT) The approximate SCC-DFTB method allows to investigate the dynamical and structural properties of the complex systems, while the most accurate DFT calculations enable to refine the models and study their electronic properties. The first part of the work is devoted to the modelling of the interface between TiO2 anatase (101) surface and graphene with defects, since they are often observed in real samples. Furthermore, we have considered the presence of water molecules and their reactivity at the interface to propose possible reaction paths and to investigate the undercover effects due to the reaction confinement. The second part of the work presents the study on a model of spherical TiO2 nanoparticle decorated with a densely packed monolayer of two organic molecules: the enediol DOPAC and the organosilane TETT, that are excellent linkers. DOPAC is a catechol derivative bearing an extra carboxylic group. An extensive set of adsorption modes on the TiO2 curved surface have been investigated. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have also been performed to elucidate the affinity of the carboxylic groups toward the TiO2 surface and to investigate the thermal effect on the structural conformation of the hybrid inorganic/organic system. Since TiO2 is an excellent UV light absorbant, we have studied the TiO2/DOPAC system photoexcitation. TETT is an organosilane molecule with a propyl chain bearing an ethylenediamine group, further functionalized with three carboxylic groups. Due to the size and complexity of TETT fully-decorated TiO2 nanoparticle, we have sampled the configurational space through several MD runs. To conclude, the investigation of different hybrid (metal oxide/C-based layer) systems performed in this works has allowed, on one side, to rationalize the reactivity at the TiO2/graphene interface, and, on the other side, to perform a comparative analysis between two different types of organic monolayers (by enediols or silanes) on TiO2 and to assess their potential as linkers for biomolecules attachment and transport

Full textAn innovative class of MRI CAs is represented by Gd-loaded gold nanoparticles. Differently from other nano-sized systems, the size, shape and chemical functionalization appear to affect the observed relaxation enhancement of water protons in their suspensions. The herein reported results shed more light on the determinants of the relaxation enhancement brought by Gd-loaded concave cube gold nanoparticles. It has been found that the role of the concave surface of these nanoparticles in the relaxivity is remarkable and it provides high contribution of second sphere water molecules. The specific shape of concave cube nanoparticles increases the relaxivity from 20.9 mM-1S-1 for spherical nanoparticles to 36.3 mM-1S-1. On the other hand, our studies prove that this special shape gold nanoparticles show high efficiency as a SERS probe. In the single-particle surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy, the use of tunable plasmonic nanoparticles, having tipped surface structures, as being substrates revealed a highly feasible and promising approach to optimize SERS-based imaging and sensing applications. The concave cubic morphology has shown a remarkable plasmonic response, representing high sensitivity to the concavity degree. hence they can provide strong Raman signal which can be use in Raman imaging. Magnetic resonance and optical imaging are complementary techniques. By applying same nanoparticles as a contrast agent for both methods simultaniusly, screening total body with very clear identification become possible. This progress in imaging technologies associated with the advance of nanotechnology makes feasible the cancer detection and localization in its early stage.

Full textTwo-dimensional materials have aroused great interest among the scientific community thanks to their exceptional properties and promising applications in many technological fields. Nevertheless, over the last years, the frontline of research has moved from the study of basic properties of pure 2D crystals to chemical modified forms, i.e. doped 2D materials, and their interaction with other systems, such as nanoparticles, or surfaces. Within this frame, metal substrates are often employed as heterogeneous catalysts for the growth of 2D materials, although their role is often relegated to mere supporting materials, with a little attention to the potential that these hybrid interfaces (two-dimensional materials/metal surfaces) offer. This work investigates complex interfaces between two-dimensional materials and metal surfaces, both from the point of view of basic understanding of such systems and application in electrocatalysis and sensing. In particular, the thesis is mainly addressed to the understanding of the synergistic role of the underlying metal substrate and defects like vacancies or dopants on the chemical and physical properties of the two-dimensional adlayer. We employed state-of-the-art computational methods to model systems that are as realistic as possible. All calculations have been performed through density functional theory (DFT), using dispersion-corrected functionals. The main idea of this work is to exploit the high surface area of two-dimensional materials to trap objects that can be atoms or metal clusters, as well as molecules. Such objects can be used as catalytic sites for many reactions of great interest or induce some modification in the 2D material, making it suitable as a sensor.
