The energetics and the structural stabilities of small SimCn clusters with m + n = 2-5 have been investigated by AM1 and PM3 type semi-empirical molecular orbital methods within the RHF formalizm. It has been found that small silicon-carbide clusters prefer the linear structure.

Structural and electronic properties of borazine cyclacenes
Erkoç, Şakir (2001-05-04)
The structural and electronic properties of borazine cyclacenes (BNn) have been investigated by performing semiempirical molecular orbital self-consistent field calculations at the level of AM1 method within the RHF formulation. It has been found that as the number of borazine rings increases in the arenoid belt the structures become more exothermic.
Quantum chemical calculations of warfarin sodium, warfarin and its metabolites
Tekin, Emine Deniz (Calisir); ERKOÇ, Figen; YILDIZ, İLKAY; Erkoç, Şakir (2008-07-01)
The structural, vibrational and electronic properties of warfarin sodium, warfarin and its metabolites have been investigated theoretically by performing the molecular mechanics (MM+ force field), the semi-empirical self-consistent-field molecular-orbital (AM1), and density functional theory calculations. The geometry of the molecules have been optimized, the vibrational dynamics and the electronic properties of the molecules have been calculated in their ground state in gas phase.
Molecular-dynamics simulations of nickel clusters
Erkoç, Şakir; Gunes, B; Gunes, P (2000-07-01)
Structural stability and energetics of nickel clusters, Nih (N = 3 - 459), have been inves tigated by molecular-dynamics simulations, A size-dependent empirical model potential energy function has been used in the simulations. Stable structures of the microclusters with sizes N = 3 - 55 and clusters generated from fee crystal structure with sizes N = 79 - 459 have been determined by molecular-dynamics simulations. It has been found that the fivefold symmetry appears on the surface of the spherical clusters....
Electronic properties of open-ended single wall carbon nanotubes
Turker, L; Erkoç, Şakir (2002-01-31)
We have investigated the electrostatic, charge and orbital properties of open-ended single-wall carbon nanotubes in zigzag geometry. The calculations were performed by using the AM1-RHF semiempirical molecular orbital method. It has been found that the tubes with smaller radius behave like a metallic solid whereas the tubes with larger radius behave like a metallic hollow cylinder.
Theoretical investigation of quercetin and its radical isomers
Erkoc, E; Erkoc, F; Keskin, N (Elsevier BV, 2003-08-01)
The structural and electronic properties of quercetin and its five radical isomers have been investigated theoretically by performing semi-empirical molecular orbital theory calculations. The geometry of the systems have been optimized and the electronic properties of the systems considered have been calculated by semi-empirical self-consistend-field molecular orbital theory at the level AM1 within UHF formalism in their ground state. Conclusions have been drawn by comparing with experimental results.
