The results of an ab initio calculation, based on pseudopotentials and the density functional theory, for the atomic and electronic structures of the chemisorption of 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APTS) on the Si(001)-(2 x 2) surface are presented. Two possible models for the chemisorption location of the APTS molecule are considered on the hydroxylated Si(001)-(2 x 2) surface: (i) an above-pedestal position (intra-row) between adjacent Si dimers and (ii) an above-hollow position. The first case is found to be energetically more favorable than the latter by 1.04 eV. The electronic band structure of this site has been compared with that of the bare Si(001)-(2 x 2) surface. It is observed that the chemisorption of APTS has considerably changed the electronic structure of the Si(001)-(2 x 2) surface.

Density Functional Theory Calculations on Polyacene Molecules Pekoz, Rengin; Erkoç, Şakir (2010-03-01) The structural and electronic properties of isolated linear and zigzag type polyacene molecules have been investigated by density functional theory calculations using B3LYP exchange-correlation functional with 6-31G(d) basis set. The zigzag polyacene molecules found to be energetically more stable than the linear structures and the optimized molecules of both types have planar geometries. In the present study, more attention has been given to the picene molecule which is a rival to pentacene molecule and ha...
Numerical investigation of coupled heat and mass transfer inside the adsorbent bed of an adsorption cooling unit Solmus, Ismail; Rees, D. Andrew S.; Yamali, Cemil; Baker, Derek Keıth; KAFTANOĞLU, BİLGİN (2012-05-01) In this study, the influence of several design parameters on the transient distributions of temperature, pressure and amount adsorbed in the radial direction of a cylindrical adsorbent bed of an adsorption cooling unit using silica gel/water have been investigated numerically. For this purpose, a transient one-dimensional local thermal non-equilibrium model that accounts for both internal and external mass transfer resistances has been developed using the local volume averaging method. For the conditions in...
Metallization of the C-60/Rh(100) interface revealed by valence photoelectron spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations Wade, Abdou-Ciss; Lizzit, Silvano; Petaccia, Luca; Goldoni, Andrea; Diop, Djibril; Toffoli, Hande; Fabris, Stefano; Baroni, Stefano (AIP Publishing, 2010-06-01) The electronic structure of single and multiple layers of C-60 molecules deposited on a Rh(100) surface is investigated by means of valence photoemission spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations. The binding of the fullerene monolayer to the metal surface yields the appearance of a new state in the valence band spectrum crossing the Fermi level. Insight into the metallization of the metal/fullerene interface is provided by the calculated electronic structure that allows us to correlate the me...
Zirconium microclusters: molecular-dynamics simulations and density functional calculations Bastug, T; Erkoç, Şakir; Hirata, M; Tachimori, S (2000-09-01) Structural stability and energetics of zirconium microclusters Zr, (n = 3-13) have been investigated by molecular-dynamics simulations and density functional calculations. A semi-empirical modelpotential energy function has been parametrized for the zirconium element by using the dimer interaction potential energy profile of Zr-2, which is calculated by the relativistic density functional method. Stable structures of the microclusters for n = 3-13 have been determined by a molecular-dynamics simulation. Rel...
Adsorption and dissociation of PH3 on SiGe(100) (2x1) surface Turkmenoglu, Mustafa; Katırcıoğlu, Şenay (World Scientific Pub Co Pte Lt, 2008-06-01) The most stable structures for the adsorption and dissociation of phosphine (PH3) on SiGe(100) (2 x 1) surface have been investigated by relative total energy calculations based on density functional theory. According to the optimization calculations, PH3 is adsorbed on the Si (down) and Ge (down) site of the Ge-Si and Ge-Ge dimers on SiGe surface, respectively. The PH2 and H products have been found to be thermodynamically favored in the dissociation path of PH3 on SiGe surface when the system is thermally...
