#Semiempirical quantum chemical treatment at the level of PM3 type calculations were performed on the models considered to be capable of mimicking [NiFe] hydrogenase core of Desulfovibrio vulgaris Miyazaki F at different mechanistic steps. These models possess H, S or Se bridge between Ni and Fe centers. In the case of neutral models URF, whereas for the charged models RHF type approach were used. In every case, the models were found to be stable and exothermic. The calculations also revealed that Se bridge, up to a first approximation, may take over the role of S bridge, although the existence of such [NiFe] hydrogenase for D. vulgaris has not been reported yet.

Semi-empirical SCF-MO calculations for the structural and electronic properties of single-wall InP nanotubes Erkoç, Şakir (Elsevier BV, 2004-05-14) The structural and electronic properties of armchair and zigzag models of single-wall InP nanotubes have been investigated qualitatively by performing semi-empirical self-consistent-field molecular orbital calculations at the level of PM3 method within the RHF formulation. It has been found that these structures are stable and they may be used as conducting nanowires in nanodevice and optoelectronic applications.
Resveratrol and its analogues resveratrol-dihydroxyl isomers: semi-empirical SCF-MO calculations Erkoç, Şakir; Keskin, N; Erkoc, F (Elsevier BV, 2003-08-01) The structural and electronic properties of resveratrol and its three analogues resveratrol-dihydroxyl isomers have been investigated theoretically by performing semi-empirical self-consistent field molecular orbital theory calculations. The geometry of the systems have been optimized and the electronic properties have been calculated at the level of AMI method.
Structural and electronic properties of single-wall GaN nanotubes: semi-empirical SCF-MO calculations Erkoc, S; Malcıoğlu, Osman Barış; Tasci, E (Elsevier BV, 2004-04-09) The structural and electronic properties of armchair and zigzag models of single-wall GaN nanotubes have been investigated by performing semi-empirical molecular orbital self-consistent field calculations at the level of PM3 method within the RHF formulation. It has been found that these structures are stable and endothermic. The armchair model has zero net dipole moment, whereas the zigzag model has nonzero net dipole moment. It has been found that GaN armchair tube with even number of hexagonal rings on t...
Structural and electronic properties of 'benzorods' Erkoc, F (Elsevier BV, 2003-11-03) The structural and electronic properties of benzorods, carbon nanorods made of benzen molecules, have been investigated systematically by performing semi-empirical self-consistent-field molecular-orbital theory calculations at AM1-RUF level. The benzorod represented by nC6 contains n benzonoid rings placed parallel to each other forms a stable structure.
Hydrogen storage capacity of Be@C-115 system Türker, Burhan Lemi (Elsevier BV, 2005-05-20) Semiempirical quantum chemical analysis of a Be doped single-walled, semicapped, armchair type nanotube, Be@C-115, was achieved at the level of PM3 (RHF) type calculations for some of its quantum chemical properties and hydrogen storage capacity. The Be@C-115 system was found to be capable of storing 1-5 hydrogen molecules as endohedral dopant(s), whereas the sixth hydrogen molecule was expelled out. All the structures, (Be+nH(2))@C-115 were found to be stable and endothermic. Moreover, the increasing numbe...
