The ultimate aspiration of any detection method is to achieve such a level of sensitivity that individual quanta of a measured value can be resolved. In the case of chemical sensors, the quantum is one atom or molecule. Such resolution has…
Because of the dominant role of the surface of molecules and their individuality, molecules behave dis-tinctively in a confined space, which has far-reaching implications in many physical, chemical and bio-logical systems. Here, we…
Molecular adsorption is pivotal in device fabrication and material synthesis for quantum technology. However, elucidating the behavior of physisorption poses technical challenges. Here graphene with ultrahigh sensitivity was utilized to…
Graphene-based membranes have been investigated as promising candidates for water filtration and gas separation applications. Experimental evidences have shown that graphene oxide can be impermeable to liquids, vapors and gases, while…
We have studied two interchange layer systems, (i) free standing partly hydrogenated graphene (graphone), and (ii) graphone on the Nickel (111) surface, to assess various density functional theory based computational schemes incorporating…
In the present work, the calculations have been performed for dispersion interaction between heavy elements (Zn$^+$, Cd$^+$, Hg$^+$, Pb$^+$, Zn, Cd, Hg, and Pb) with graphene and carbon nanotubes by evaluating van der Waals $C_3$…
Energy barrier of oxygen molecule dissociation on carbon nanotube or graphene with different types of nitrogen doping is investigated using density functional theory. The results show that the energy barriers can be reduced efficiently by…
Hydrogen adsorption by graphite is examined by classical molecular dynamics simulation using a modified Brenner REBO potential. Such interactions are typical in chemical sputtering experiments, and knowledge of the fundamental behavior of…
Studies of the structural, electronic, and optical characteristics of the interfaces between graphene and ZnO polar surfaces is carried out using first-principles simulations. At the interface, a strong van der Waals force is present, and…
We study the effects of H2O on CO2 adsorption in an amine-appended variant of the metal-organic framework Mg2(dobpdc), which is known to exhibit chaining behavior that presents in a step-shaped adsorption isotherm. We first show how the…
The adsorption energies and orientation of methanol on graphene are determined from first-principles density functional calculations. We employ the well-tested vdW-DF method that seamlessly includes dispersion interactions with all of the…
Layered electrides, as typified by Ca$_2$N, are a new class of quasi-two-dimensional materials with low work functions. Using first-principles calculations, we have shown that a graphene layer deposited on Ca$_2$N is doped to $n=5\times…
We systematically investigate the magnetic and electronic properties of graphene adsorbed with diluted 3d-transition and noble metal atoms using first principles calculation methods. We find that most transition metal atoms (i.e. Sc, Ti, V,…
Associating the presence of atomic vacancies to excited-state transport phenomena in two dimensional semiconductors is of emerging interest, and demands detailed understanding of the involved exciton transitions. Here we study the effect of…
The structures and energetics of organic molecules adsorbed onto clean and H-passivated Si(001)-(2$\times$1) surfaces have been calculated using density functional theory. For benzene adsorbed on the clean Si surface the tight-bridge…
We develop the tight-binding model to study electronic and optical properties of graphane. The strong sp3 chemical bondings among the carbon and hydrogen atoms induce a special band structure and thus lead to the rich optical excitations.…
We introduce a modified version of the Hirshfeld charge analysis method and demonstrate its accurateness by calculating the charge transfer between the paramagnetic molecule NO2 and graphene. The charge transfer between paramagnetic…
