Abstract:

There is no theoretical limit in using molecular networks to harvest diffusive sun photons on large areas and funnel them onto much smaller areas of highly efficient but also precious energy-converting materials. The most effective concept reported so far is based on a pool of randomly oriented, light-harvesting donor molecules that funnel all excitation quanta by ultrafast energy transfer to individual light-redirecting acceptor molecules oriented parallel to the energy converters. However, the best practical light-harvesting system could only be discovered by empirical screening of molecules that either align or not within stretched polymers and the maximum absorption wavelength of the empirical system was far away from the solar maximum. No molecular property was known explaining why certain molecules would align very effectively whereas similar molecules did not. Here, we first explore what molecular properties are responsible for a molecule to be aligned. We found a parameter derived directly from the molecular structure with a high predictive power for the alignability. In addition, we found a set of ultrafast funneling molecules that harvest three times more energy in the solar’s spectrum peak for GaInP photovoltaics. A detailed study on the ultrafast dipole moment reorientation dynamics demonstrates that refocusing of the diffusive light is based on ∼15-ps initial dipole moment depolarization followed by ∼50-ps repolarization into desired directions. This provides a detailed understanding of the molecular depolarization/repolarization processes responsible for refocusing diffusively scattered photons without violating the second law of thermodynamics.

Abstract:

Adsorption involves molecules colliding at the surface of a solid and losing their incidence energy by traversing a dynamical pathway to equilibrium. The interactions responsible for energy loss generally include both chemical bond formation (chemisorption) and nonbonding interactions (physisorption). In this work, we present experiments that revealed a quantitative energy landscape and the microscopic pathways underlying a molecule’s equilibration with a surface in a prototypical system: CO adsorption on Au(111). Although the minimum energy state was physisorbed, initial capture of the gas-phase molecule, dosed with an energetic molecular beam, was into a metastable chemisorption state. Subsequent thermal decay of the chemisorbed state led molecules to the physisorption minimum. We found, through detailed balance, that thermal adsorption into both binding states was important at all temperatures.

Abstract:

Excitonic processes in organic molecular crystals are discussed in terms of two parameters, the crystal size and the constituent molecule size. From the luminescence and absorption spectra of a series of aromatic molecular crystals we find a systematic change in exciton energy transport as functions of the size of crystal and its constituent molecule size. Characteristic features of bulk crystals and microcrystallites are as follows. (1) In bulk crystals exciton energy transport depends on the constituent molecule size. When molecules are small, the exciton energy transport occurs by free excitons, but when molecules are large free exciton transport disappears because excitons get self-trapped. (2) In microcrystallites, exciton energy transport depends on the crystallite size. When the size is larger than a critical one, excitons travel as quantum mechanical waves but when the size is smaller than the critical one the exciton waves get confined within the crystallite. The results are independent of the chemical species of constituent molecules and thus applicable to novel molecular arrays such as biological molecular arrays.

Abstract:

Herein, we have designed four small molecular donors (SMDs) with Donor–Acceptor–Acceptor (D–Á–A) backbone having different acceptor units for highly efficient organic solar cells (OSCs). The specific molecular modeling has been made by replacing the additional acceptor unit (A) of recently synthesized TPA-DAA-MDN molecule (R) by employing different highly efficient acceptor units in order to improve the photovoltaic performances of the molecules. A theoretical approach (DFT and TD-DFT) has been applied to investigate the photophysical, opto-electronic and photovoltaic parameters of the designed molecules (DAA1–DAA4) and compared with the reference molecule (R). The red-shifting absorption of SMDs is the most important factor for highly efficient OSCs. Our all formulated molecules showed a red shifted absorption spectrum and also exhibit near IR sensitivity. Acceptor unit modification of R molecule causes reduction in HOMO-LUMO energy gap; therefore, all designed molecules offer better opto-electronic properties as compared to R molecule. A variety of certain critical factors essential for efficient SMDs like frontier molecular orbitals (FMOs), absorption maxima, dipole moment, exciton binding energy along with transition density matrix, excitation energy, open circuit voltages and charge mobilities of (DAA1–DAA4) and R have also been investigated. Generally, low values of reorganizational energy (hole and electron) offer high charge mobility and our all designed molecules are enriched in this aspect. High open circuit voltage values, low excitation energies, large dipole moment values indicate that our designed SMDs are suitable candidates for high-efficiency OSCs. Furthermore, conceptualized molecules are superior and thus are suggested to experimentalist for out-looking future progresses of highly efficient OSCs devices.

Abstract:

The aim of this paper was to analyze the structure, vibrations and to do global analyses of molecules of p-n-alkyl benzoic acid (nBAC). The energy, IR, and Homo-Lumo optimised parameters were calculated using a density functional method. The global reactivity descriptors of molecules, including electro-negativity, electron affinity, ionisation potential, global softness, chemical potential, and energy gaps is further shown by band gap value drops. It offers important details on the stability of nBAC molecules (n=4,5,6,7,8,9). It has been demonstrated that the molecular series displays the energy of an isolated molecule as the length of the alkyl chain rises. The molecular series is useful for insulating applications since it also has a high band gap.

Abstract:

AbstractPyrene fluorescence of a molecular donor-acceptor nanoaggregate induced by infrared (IR) radiation with λ =16 - 18 μm considered.We assume that this nanoaggregate consists of two molecules, exchanging energy by dipole-dipole interaction. The energy acceptor is an aromatic molecule. The other molecule, the energy donor, is assumed to contain a substructure CnH2n which serves as antenna for IR radiation. The antenna can accumulate collective vibrational excitations and transmit them to the acceptor molecule. Acceptor fluorescence is possible if the amount of transmitted energy is equal to the energy of its excited state in the visible part of the absorption spectrum. We analyse the fluorescence of a nanoaggregate consisting of a donor with a C5H10 substructure and pyrene molecules or pyrene dimers as acceptors. A method is proposed for determination of the ‘critical micelle concentration’ (CMC), i. e. concentration of a dissolved polymer, for which the polymer molecules are beginning to aggregate.

Full text

Abstract:

Potential energy has been calculated for molecular aggregates formed of all-trans extended hexanes with various arrangements of the central molecule surrounded by the first coordination sphere. Differences in stabilities of the aggregates are connected with biaxial character of asymmetry of the interaction energy of extended paraffins. When investigating the multiparameter interaction potential of the partially ordered systems of hydrocarbon chains, the first step consisted in determination of the energy barriers to longitudinal shifts of the central molecules at various distances of the surrounding molecules. Destabilization of the aggregates with displaced molecules is due to both the mismatch of the central molecule to the matrix and effective shortening of that part of the central molecule which is "immersed" in the aggregate. The energetics of the model aggregates is made use of in elucidating the role of translation of paraffins and cognate molecules in rotational phase, in mesophases, and at a forced shortening of the chains connected with conformational transition.

Abstract:

Electrons bound to atoms or molecules can simultaneously absorb multiple photons via the above-threshold ionization featured with discrete peaks in the photoelectron spectrum on account of the quantized nature of the light energy. Analogously, the above-threshold dissociation of molecules has been proposed to address the multiple-photon energy deposition in the nuclei of molecules. In this case, nuclear energy spectra consisting of photon-energy spaced peaks exceeding the binding energy of the molecular bond are predicted. Although the observation of such phenomena is difficult, this scenario is nevertheless logical and is based on the fundamental laws. Here, we report conclusive experimental observation of high-order above-threshold dissociation of H2 in strong laser fields where the tunneling-ionized electron transfers the absorbed multiphoton energy, which is above the ionization threshold to the nuclei via the field-driven inelastic rescattering. Our results provide an unambiguous evidence that the electron and nuclei of a molecule as a whole absorb multiple photons, and thus above-threshold ionization and above-threshold dissociation must appear simultaneously, which is the cornerstone of the nowadays strong-field molecular physics.

Full text

Abstract:

The multiple ionisation and dissociation of molecules, e.g. H2, N2, H2O, CH4 and C60, by fast ions was studied using a position- and time-sensitive multi-particle detector. The data obtained allow a clear separation of various reaction channels. Of special interest are the ‘Coulomb explosion’ processes like N2 → Nq+ +Nn+ or H2O → H+ + H+ +On+. For these reactions the coincident measurement of the momenta of correlated fragment ion yields a kinematically complete image of the molecular break-up process, and the fragmentation energy as well as angular correlations can be derived for each individual event. In the case of H2 as target molecule the CE model describes the fragmentation energy rather well, whereas in the case of more complex molecules, e.g. N2, CO and CH4, the simple CE model is insufficient to explain the measured energy and angular spectra. Better agreement was achieved with ab initio MCSCF calculations which take into account several molecular states of the fragmenting highly charged molecular ion.

Abstract:

The dissolution process of benzene, toluene and ethylbenzene in amorphous polyethylene (PE) membrane was studied in this paper, and the solubility coefficients of the above organic molecules were analyzed and calculated by molecular dynamics simulation. The results showed: the solubility coefficient decreased with increasing molecular weights of organic molecules in the same temperature, and it also decreased with increasing temperature for the same organic molecule. Distribution of density field and energy field for organic molecules in PE were obtained. From the density distribution, the concentrated adsorbed area of the three kinds of molecules is clearly seen, which located at the more loose place in polyethylene membrane. From the energy distribution, it showed thehot spots of the organic molecules, which were the location that the organic molecules were most easily absorbed. The adsorption capacities of benzene, toluene and ethyl benzene in polyethylene membrane decreased in turn.

Full text

Abstract:

Quantum chaos is reviewed from the viewpoint of “what is molecule?”, particularly placing emphasis on their dynamics. Molecules are composed of heavy nuclei and light electrons, and thereby the very basic molecular theory due to Born and Oppenheimer gives a view that quantum electronic states provide potential functions working on nuclei, which in turn are often treated classically or semiclassically. Therefore, the classic study of chaos in molecular science began with those nuclear dynamics particularly about the vibrational energy randomization within a molecule. Statistical laws in probabilities and rates of chemical reactions even for small molecules of several atoms are among the chemical phenomena requiring the notion of chaos. Particularly the dynamics behind unimolecular decomposition are referred to as Intra-molecular Vibrational energy Redistribution (IVR). Semiclassical mechanics is also one of the main research fields of quantum chaos. We herein demonstrate chaos that appears only in semiclassical and full quantum dynamics. A fundamental phenomenon possibly giving birth to quantum chaos is “bifurcation and merging” of quantum wavepackets, rather than “stretching and folding” of the baker’s transformation and the horseshoe map as a geometrical foundation of classical chaos. Such wavepacket bifurcation and merging are indeed experimentally measurable as we showed before in the series of studies on real-time probing of nonadiabatic chemical reactions. After tracking these aspects of molecular chaos, we will explore quantum chaos found in nonadiabatic electron wavepacket dynamics, which emerges in the realm far beyond the Born-Oppenheimer paradigm. In this class of chaos, we propose a notion of Intra-molecular Nonadiabatic Electronic Energy Redistribution (INEER), which is a consequence of the chaotic fluxes of electrons and energy within a molecule.

Abstract:

Abstract The isonicotinamide-malonic acid (2/1) co-crystal salt (2IN·C3) exhibits a first-order displacive structural phase transition from low-temperature triclinic P1̅ crystal structure to high-temperature monoclinic C2/c crystal structure and vice versa at the transition temperatures of 298 (1) and 295 (1) K, respectively, as determined by variable-temperature SCXRD analysis and DSC measurements. The asymmetric unit of 2IN·C3 comprises three malonic acid molecules and six isonicotinamide molecules at the low-temperature phase, and this is reduced to a half-molecule of malonic acid and an isonicotinamide molecule in the high-temperature phase. The carboxyl and pyridinium H atoms are disordered at both phases. The observed phase transition near room temperature is triggered by the molecular displacement of the isonicotinamide molecule and the syn-anti conformational transformation of the malonic acid molecule with deviation angles of 10.4 and 11.7°, respectively, which induced an energy change of 19.1 kJ mol−1 in the molecular cluster comprising a central isonicotinamide molecule and eight neighboring molecules. However, the total interaction energy of the molecular cluster of a central malonic acid molecule and eight neighboring molecules does not change significantly upon the phase transition. The molecules of isonicotinamide structures except IN·IN+·triazole‒ form zero-dimensional finite arrays or one-dimensional chains as the primary supramolecular construct by carboxyl···pyridyl (−35.9 to −56.7 kJ mol−1) and carboxamide···carboxamide (−53.6 to −68.7 kJ mol−1) or carboxyl···carboxamide (−52.6 to −67.1 kJ mol−1) synthons.

A linear form of the above general model was applied to determine the interaction energies among hydrogen molecules inside adsorption layer from the previous experimental data of hydrogen adsorption on A- and X-type zeolites. The results show that the energies of hydrogen-hydrogen interactions inside the adsorption layer are negative values, indicating that the attractions among the adsorbed hydrogen molecules are prominent in the present work. And the influence of hydrogen molecules outside adsorption layer on the adsorbed hydrogen molecule is not important.

Abstract:

A long-standing challenge for the application of computational chemistry in the field of crystallography is the prediction of crystal packing, given no more than the chemical bonding of the molecules being crystallised. Recent years have seen significant progress towards reliable crystal structure prediction methods, even for traditionally challenging systems involving flexible molecules and multi-component solids [1]. These methods are based on global searches of the lattice energy surface: a search is performed to locate all possible packing arrangements, and these structures are ranked by their calculated energy [2]. One aim of this lecture is to provide an overview of advances in methods for crystal structure prediction, focussing on molecular organic crystals, and highlighting strategies that are being explored to extend the reach of these methods to more complex systems. A second aim is to discuss the range applications of crystal structure prediction calculations, which have traditionally included solid form screening, particularly of pharmaceutically active molecules, and structure determination. As energy models become more reliable at correctly ranking the stability order of putative structures, and the timescale required for structure searching decreases, crystal structure prediction has the potential for the discovery of novel molecular materials with targeted properties. Prospects for computer-guided discovery of materials will be discussed.

Abstract In the present age, researchers are trying to overcome the energy crisis and the global demand for energy by developing organic solar cells (OSCs) of higher efficacy. Herein, we have developed five new acceptor molecules with a dithienocyclopentacarbazole donor unit flanked with different electron-withdrawing end-capped acceptor units, named Z1 ((Z)-2-(2-ethylidene-5,6-difluoro-3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-ylidene)malononitrile), Z2 ((Z)-1-(dicyanomethylene)-2-ethylidene-3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-5,6-dicarbonitrile), Z3 ((Z)-2-(5-ethylidene-4-oxo-4,5-dihydro-6H-cyclopenta[b]thiophen-6-ylidene)malononitrile), Z4 ((Z)-2-(5-ethylidene-3-fluoro-4-oxo-4,5-dihydro-6H-cyclopenta[b]thiophen-6-ylidene)malononitrile) and Z5 ((Z)-5-((Z)-5-ethylidene-4-oxo-4,5-dihydro-6H-cyclopenta[b]thiophen-6-ylidene)-3-methyl-2-thioxothiazolidin-4-one) to get greater effectiveness and good activity of OSCs, in order for non-renewable resources to be replaced with cost-effective, better-performing OSCs. B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) was used analytically to explore the maximum absorption wavelength ( λ max ), reorganization energy (RE), frontier molecular orbital, transition density matrix, open circuit voltage ( V oc ), density of state, binding energy ( E b ) and dipole moment of the newly developed molecules. Amongst all the newly designed (Z1–Z5) molecules, the Z2 molecule showed the lowest energy gap (2.04 eV) between highest occupied molecular orbital and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital, maximum λ max value in the applied phases i.e. gas (680.74 nm) and solvent (737.0 nm) along with the highest dipole moment values in gas (9.85 Debye) and solvent phase (11.0 Debye), lowest values of reorganization energy, and high charge mobilities. In addition, all the newly designed molecules were found to have the potential for better results in contrast to the molecule R (reference molecule).

Abstract:

In this work, the intermolecular interactions of diacetyl and water molecules were studied using the vibration spectrum. The Raman scattering spectra obtained in the range of 500– 2000 cm−1 were analyzed and compared with the results of calculations. For the first time аlso, the charge density distribution and 3D potential energy graphs are examined using simulations for diacetyl molecules. With the increase in the number of molecules at the formation of molecular clusters with the water molecule, the saturation of the intermolecular interaction energy corresponding to a single Н-bond is observed. This corresponds to DA+(Н2O)3 molecular clusters and allows one to conclude that this cluster is stable relative to the others.

Abstract:

This work introduces a novel coarse-grained model representing the dynamics of polar molecules that adsorb on a substrate in the presence of a solvent. The motivation of the model is to avoid the explicit representation of the solvent. Instead, the solvent-mediated interaction is indirectly represented using a fluctuating energy landscape. The dynamics, on which this model is based, are similar to the dynamics in game theory. In particular, the strategy of an agent in a game is similar to the modification of the free energy barrier between the molecule and the substrate induced by other companion molecules. The aim of this method is to show how the interplay between solvents and companion molecules can imply a modification in the adsorption energy of molecules, and how this modification can buffer the adsorption of specific molecules on surfaces. The results, and their implications in the molecular recognition of surfaces, are discussed.

Abstract:

The computational design of explosives is becoming very popular since it represents a safe and environmentally friendly way of predicting the properties of these molecules. It is known that positive values of electrostatic potential in the central areas of the molecular surface are a good indicator of the sensitivity of high-energy materials towards detonation. The molecular electrostatic potential is routinely calculated for molecules of explosives using both geometries extracted from crystal structures, and computationally optimized geometries. Here we calculated and compared values of positive electrostatic potential in the centers of five classical high-energy molecules for geometries extracted from different crystal structures and theoretically optimized geometries. Density functional theory calculations performed at M06/cc-PVDZ level showed that there are significant differences in the values of electrostatic potentials in critical points obtained for different geometries of the same high-energy molecules. The study also showed that there was an excellent agreement in the values of electrostatic potentials calculated for optimized geometry of 1,3,5-trinitrobenzene and geometry of this molecule obtained by neutron diffraction experiments. The results of this study could help researchers in the area of the computational development of high-energy molecules to better design their studies and to avoid the production of erroneous results.

Abstract:

We applied density functional theory (DFT) to study three polycyclic aromatic compounds (PAHs), corannulene, coronene, and circulene, for the preparation of twelve new buckyballs with molecular dimensions of less than a nanometer. The results showed that the corannulene molecule is bowl-shaped, the coronene molecule is planar, and the circulene molecule has a unique saddle-shaped structure. Cyclic polymerization of the three molecules can be used to prepare new buckyballs, and this process produces hydrogen molecules. The most symmetric buckyball is also the most stable based on the values of the HOMO energy levels and has the most efficient gap energy, making it potentially useful for solar cell applications.

Abstract:

Solar energy is an alternative source of energy that can be used to replace fossil fuels. Various types of solar cells have been developed to harvest this seemingly endless supply of energy, leading to the construction of solar cell devices, such as dye-sensitized solar cells. An important factor that affects energy conversion efficiency of dye-sensitized solar cells is the distribution of dye molecules within the porous semiconductor (TiO 2 ). In this paper, we formulate a continuum model for the interaction between the dye molecule Tris(2,2 ′ -bipyridyl)ruthenium(II) (Ru(bpy) 3 2 + ) and titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) semiconductor. We obtain the equilibrium position at the minimum energy position between the dye molecules and between the dye and TiO 2 nanoporous structure. Our main outcome is an analytical expression for the energy of the two molecules as a function of their sizes. We also show that the interaction energy obtained using the continuum model is in close agreement with molecular dynamics simulations.

Abstract:

Abstract Annihilation studies have established that positrons bind to most molecules. They also provide measurements of the positron-molecule binding energies, which are found to vary widely and depend upon molecular size and composition. Trends of binding energy with global parameters such as molecular polarizability and dipole moment have been discussed previously. In this paper, the dependence of binding energy on molecular geometry is investigated by studying resonant positron annihilation on selected pairs of isomers. It is found that molecular geometry can play a significant role in determining the binding energies even for isomers with very similar polarizabilities and dipole moments. The possible origins of this dependence are discussed.

Abstract:

ABSTRACTDensity functional theory and molecular dynamics were used to study the generation of hydrogen peroxide around a nickel atom anchored on a pyridine-like nitrogen-doped graphene (PNG) layer. First, we found that two hydrogen molecules are adsorbed around the nickel atom, with adsorption energy 0.95 eV/molecule. Then we studied the interaction of oxygen molecules with this system at atmospheric pressure and 300 K. It is found that two hydrogen peroxide molecules are formed. However, at 700 K, one hydrogen peroxide molecule, and one water molecule are desorbed. One oxygen atom stays bound to the nickel atom.

Abstract:

We explore electron transport properties in molecular wires made of heterocyclic molecules (pyrrole, furan and thiophene) by using the Green's function technique. Parametric calculations are given based on the tight-binding model to describe the electron transport in these wires. It is observed that the transport properties are significantly influenced by (a) the heteroatoms in the heterocyclic molecules and (b) the molecule-to-electrodes coupling strength. Conductance (g) shows sharp resonance peaks associated with the molecular energy levels in the limit of weak molecular coupling, while they get broadened in the strong molecular coupling limit. These resonances get shifted with the change of the heteroatoms in these heterocyclic molecules. All the essential features of the electron transfer through these molecular wires become much more clearly visible from the study of our current-voltage (I-V) characteristics, and they provide several key information in the study of molecular transport.

Abstract:

In this study the interaction energies for single-stranded DNA and double-stranded DNA molecules with a lipid bilayer are investigated. The 6-12 Lennard-Jones potential and continuous approximation are used to derive analytical expressions for these interaction energies. Assuming that there is a circular gap in the lipid bilayer, we determine the relationship of the molecular interaction energy, including the circular gap radius and the perpendicular distance of the single-stranded DNA and double-stranded DNA molecules from the gap. For both single-stranded and double-stranded DNA molecules, the relationship between the minimum energy location and the hole radius b is calculated; in the case of the double-stranded DNA molecule, we assume that the helical phase angle ϕ is equal to π. By minimizing the total interaction energies, the results demonstrate that the single-stranded DNA and double-stranded DNA molecules move through a lipid bilayer when the gap radius b> 10 Å and b> 13.8 Å, respectively. The results present in this project can be leveraged to understand the interactions between cell-penetrating peptides and biomembranes, which may improve gene and drug delivery.

The dipole moment value of the molecule was calculated as 3.41 Debye by the DFT/B3LYP/6-311+G(2d,p) method. The obtained vibrational wave numbers were scaled with appropriate scale factors and the assigning of these vibrational wavenumbers was made according to the potential energy distribution (PED) using the VEDA 4f program. The approximate geometry of the molecules in three dimensions was drawn in the Gauss View 5.0 molecular imaging program, and all theoretical calculations were used with the Gaussian 09W package program.

The information energy is proposed as a possible measure for electron correlation energy in atoms and molecules. For neutral atoms and their cations, we proposed an expression for correlation energy with explicit dependence on the information energy and atomic number. The obtained correlation energies have been used to compute the first ionization potentials of the ground state of the main group elements from hydrogen through krypton. It is shown that the information energy of a molecule can be well-estimated by use of the information energies of its constituent atoms. On the basis of the molecular information energy and number of electrons in the molecule, a simple model has been proposed for evaluation of molecular correlation energy.

Abstract:

A crystallographic quantum-mechanical/molecular-mechanical model (c-QM/MM model) with full space-group symmetry has been developed for molecular crystals. The lattice energy was calculated by quantum-mechanical methods for short-range interactions and force-field methods for long-range interactions. The quantum-mechanical calculations covered the interactions within the molecule and the interactions of a reference molecule with each of the surrounding 12–15 molecules. The interactions with all other molecules were treated by force-field methods. In each optimization step the energies in the QM and MM shells were calculated separately as single-point energies; after adding both energy contributions, the crystal structure (including the lattice parameters) was optimized accordingly. The space-group symmetry was maintained throughout. Crystal structures with more than one molecule per asymmetric unit,e.g.structures withZ′ = 2, hydrates and solvates, have been optimized as well. Test calculations with different quantum-mechanical methods on nine small organic molecules revealed that the density functional theory methods with dispersion correction using the B97-D functional with 6-31G* basis set in combination with the DREIDING force field reproduced the experimental crystal structures with good accuracy. Subsequently the c-QM/MM method was applied to nine compounds from the CCDC blind tests resulting in good energy rankings and excellent geometric accuracies.

Abstract:

Abstract This study explored the characteristics of atomic and molecular emissions in Al plasmas generated by femtosecond lasers. The influence of laser pulse energy on Al atoms and AlO molecules time-integrated spectra was examined. As laser pulse energy increased, the intensity of Al atoms increased, while the emission of AlO molecules first increased and then remained unchanged. Secondly, the vibration temperature of AlO was determined and found to result in strong emission at a low temperature. Finally, the influence of laser pulse energy on the time-resolved spectra of Al atom and AlO molecule was explored, finding consistency with the time-integrated emission. These results indicate that the Al atom and AlO molecule have different sensitivities to femtosecond laser pulse energy. This research enriches our knowledge of femtosecond laser-plasma interactions and has potential applications in material processing and spectroscopic analysis.

ABSTRACTA study of the Kratzer potential in molecular systems has been carried out using the Nikiforov-Uvarov Parametric method. The research aims to obtain the energy level equations of the system under the influence of the Kratzer potential and carry out simulations of these energy level equations for oxygen, iodine, carbon monoxide, nitrogen monoxide molecules. The solution for the energy level of the system is obtained by separating the Schrodinger equation of the particle system into 3 parts, namely radial, zenithal and azimuthal.

Numerical computations and graphical simulations of energy levels are carried out using Matlab. Based on the research results, it was found that the solution to the energy level equation depends on the parameters of dissociation energy, equilibrium bond length, quantum number and molecular mass.

Abstract:

It is critical for gas sensors that sense greenhouse gas molecules to have both good sensitivity and selectivity for water molecules in the ambient environment. Here, we study the charge transfer, IV curves, and electric field tuning of vanadium-doped monolayer ϵ-phosphorene as a sensor for NO, NO2, and H2O gas molecules via first-principle and transport calculations. We find that the paramagnetic toxic molecules of NO and NO2 have a high adsorption energy on V-ϵ-phosphorene, which originates from a large amount of charge transfer driven by the hybridisation of the localised spin states of the host with the molecular frontier orbital. Using the non-equilibrium Green’s function, we investigate the IV responses with respect to the adsorption of different molecules to study the performance of gas molecule sensors. Our IV curves show a larger amount of changes in resistance of the paramagnetic NO and NO2 than nonmagnetic H2O gas molecules, suggesting both sensitivity and selectivity. Moreover, our calculations show that an applied external electric field (gate voltage) can effectively tune the amount of charge transfer. More charge transfer makes the sensor more sensitive to the molecule, while less charge transfer can reduce the adsorption energy and remove the adsorbed molecules, allowing for the repeated use of the sensor.

Abstract:

This work is devoted to modeling the dynamics of large molecules. The key issue in modeling the dynamics of real molecular systems is to correctly represent the temperature of the system using the available theoretical tools. In most works on molecular dynamics, vibrations of atoms inside a molecule are modeled with enviable persistence, which has nothing to do with physical temperature. These vibrations represent the energy internal to the molecule. Therefore, it should not be present in problems in the dynamics of inert molecular systems. In this work, by means of classical mechanics, it is shown that the simplest system containing only three molecular bodies, due to multiple acts of pair interactions of these bodies, reproduces the temperature even in an extremely complex unstable motion of the system. However, at the same time, it is necessary to separate the stochastic part of the movement from the deterministic one. Calculations also show that translational fluctuations in the motion of molecules make the greatest contribution to temperature. The contribution of rotational energy to the total energy of fluctuation motions is small. It follows from these results that the thermal state of the system is determined only by the translational temperature. The latter, in turn, opens up possibilities for a simplified description of many complex systems composed of carbon molecules such as fullerenes and nanotori.

The contributions of atoms to the transfer energy of functional groups were shown to be non-additive. The steered dynamics method for estimating the kinetic parameters of the penetration of molecules through interphase boundaries was developed. Heterogeneous microviscosity of a membrane was calculated for a hydrated l-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylcholine bilayer. Effects of the chemical properties of penetrant molecule on its translocation through the membrane were studied.

Abstract:

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and polycyclic aromatic nitrogen heterocycles are believed to be widespread in different areas of the interstellar medium. However, the astronomical detection of specific aromatic molecules is extremely challenging. As a result, only a few aromatic molecules have been identified, and very little is known about how they are formed in different areas of the interstellar medium. Recently, McGuire et al. [Science 359, 202–205 (2018)] detected the simple aromatic molecule benzonitrile in Taurus Molecular Cloud-1. Although benzonitrile has been observed, the molecular mechanism for its formation is still unknown. In this study, we use quantum chemistry and ab initio molecular dynamics to model ionization processes of van der Waals clusters containing cyanoacetylene and acetylene molecules. We demonstrate computationally that the clusters' ionization leads to molecular formation. For pure cyanoacetylene clusters, we observe bond formation among two and three monomer units, whereas in mixed clusters, bond formation can also occur in up to four units. We show that the large amount of energy available to the system after ionization can lead to barrier crossing and the formation of complex molecules. Our study reveals the rich chemistry that is observed upon ionization of the clusters, with a wide variety of molecules being formed. Benzonitrile is among the observed molecules, and we study the potential energy path for its formation. These results also offer insights that can guide astronomers in their search for aromatic molecules in the interstellar medium.

Abstract:

Molecular endofullerenes are supramolecular systems consisting of fullerene cages encapsulating small molecules. Although most early examples consist of encapsulated metal clusters, recently developed synthetic routes have provided endofullerenes with non-metallic guest molecules in high purity and macroscopic quantities. The encapsulated light molecule behaves as a confined quantum rotor, displaying rotational quantization as well as translational quantization, and a rich coupling between the translational and rotational degrees of freedom. Furthermore, many encapsulated molecules display spin isomerism. Spectroscopies such as inelastic neutron scattering, nuclear magnetic resonance and infrared spectroscopy may be used to obtain information on the quantized energy level structure and spin isomerism of the guest molecules. It is also possible to study the influence of the guest molecules on the cages, and to explore the communication between the guest molecules and the molecular environment outside the cage.

Abstract:

In recent years, there has been notable progress in the preparation and control of ultracold gases of diatomic molecules. The next experimental challenge is the production of ultracold polyatomic molecular gases. Here, we report the creation of an ultracold gas of 23 Na 40 K 2 triatomic molecules from a mixture of ground-state sodium-23–potassium-40 ( 23 Na 40 K) molecules and potassium-40 ( 40 K) atoms. The triatomic molecules were created by adiabatic magneto-association through an atom–diatomic molecule Feshbach resonance. We obtained clear evidence for the creation of triatomic molecules by directly detecting them using radio-frequency dissociation. Approximately 4000 triatomic molecules with a high-peak phase-space density of 0.05 could be created. The ultracold triatomic molecules can serve as a launchpad to probe the three-body potential energy surface and may be used to prepare quantum degenerate triatomic molecular gases.

Abstract:

The dynamics of quantum entropy, energy, and entanglement is studied for various initial states in an important spectroscopic Hamiltonian of bent triatomic molecules H2O, D2O, and H2S. The total quantum correlation is quantified in terms of the mutual information and the entanglement by the concurrence borrowed from the theory of quantum information. The Pauli entropy and the intramolecular energy usually used in the theory of molecules are calculated to establish a possible relationship between both theories. Sections of two quantities among these four quantities are introduced to visualize such relationship. Analytic and numerical simulations demonstrate that if an initial state is taken to be the stretch- or the bend-vibrationally localized state, the mutual information, the Pauli entropy, and the concurrence are dominant-positively correlated while they are dominantly anti-correlated with the interacting energy among three anharmonic vibrational modes. In particular, such correlation is more distinct for the localized state with high excitations in the bending mode. The nice quasi-periodicity of those quantities in D2O molecule reveals that this molecule prepared in the localized state in the stretching or the bending mode can be more appreciated for molecular quantum computation. However, the dynamical correlations of those quantities behave irregularly for the dislocalized states. Moreover, the hierarchy of the mutual information and the Pauli entropy is explicitly proved. Quantum entropy and energy in every vibrational mode are investigated. Thereby, the relation between bipartite and tripartite entanglements is discussed as well. Those are useful for the understanding of quantum correlations in high-dimensional states in polyatomic molecules from quantum information and intramolecular dynamics.
