We study the plasmonic properties of coupled noble-metal nanochains in the case of different number of coupled chains and doping by different transition-metal (TM) atoms within the time-dependent density-functional theory (TDDFT) approach.…
We present a first--principles density functional theory (DFT) study of transition metal (TM = Ti, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni) functionalized two--dimensional polyaramid (2DPA) to explore their structural, electronic, and magnetic properties.…
Gold nanoparticle assemblies show a strong plasmonic response due to the combined effects of the individual nanoparticles' plasmon modes. Increasing the number of nanoparticles in structured assemblies leads to significant shifts in the…
We predict the strong enhancement in the photoabsorption of small Mg clusters in the region of 4-5 eV due to the resonant excitation of the plasmon oscillations of cluster electrons. The photoabsorption spectra for neutral Mg clusters…
We study the plasmonic properties of arrays of atomic chains which comprise noble (Cu, Ag, and Au) and transition (Pd, Pt) metal atoms using time-dependent density-functional theory. We show that the response to the electromagnetic…
Time-dependent density-functional theory (TDDFT) is widely used to describe electronic excitations in complex finite systems with large numbers of atoms, such as biomolecules and nanocrystals. The first part of this paper will give a simple…
We apply Density Functional Theory (DFT) and the DFT+U technique to study the adsorption of transition metal porphine molecules on atomistically flat Au(111) surfaces. DFT calculations using the Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE) exchange…
The localized surface-plasmon resonances (LSPRs) of coinage-metal clusters and nanoparticles provide the basis for a great number of applications, the conception and necessary optimization of which require precise theoretical description…
This paper provides new insights concerning the simulation of plasmon driven chemical reactions using real-time TDDFT based on the tight-binding electronic structure code DFTB+, with applications to the dissociation of H$_2$ on octahedral…
We focus on studying the opacity of iron, chromium, and nickel plasmas at conditions relevant to experiments carried out at Sandia National Laboratories [J. E. Bailey et al., Nature 517, 56 (2015)]. We calculate the photo-absorption…
The combination of nanodiamonds with plasmonic metal particles is being explored for synergic effects that can enhance biosensing and antibacterial treatments, energy harvesting, photocatalysis, and quantum centres. Here we systematically…
Density functional theory $(DFT)$ studies show that doping of $3d TM$ atoms into $Mg_4^{0,+} (TMMg_3^{0,+})$ can alter the endothermic nature of molecular hydrogen adsorption on bare $Mg_4^{0,+}$. $H_2$ adsorption on $TMMg_3^{0,+}$ clusters…
Assemblies of closely separated gold nanoparticles exhibit a strong collective plasmonic response due to coupling of the plasmon modes of the individual nanostructures. In the context of self-assembly of nanoparticles, closed packed 2D…
The ability to partially oxidize methane at low temperatures and pressures would have important environmental and economic applications. Although methane oxidation on gold nanoparticles has been observed experimentally, our density…
We study theoretically the current debatable issue about the effect of transition-metal (TM) substitution in iron-based superconductors through treating all of the TM ions as randomly distributed impurities. The extra electrons from TM…
A density functional theory study of atomic defects and dopants in ternary Z-phase transition-metal nitrides CrMN with M=V, Nb, or Ta is presented. Various defect formation energies of native point defects and of substitutional atoms of…
We use density functional theory (DFT) to investigate the electronic structure and chemical properties of gold nanoparticles. Different structural families of clusters are compared. For up to 60 atoms we optimize structures using DFT-based…

Absorption cross-section spectra for gold nanoparticles were calculated using fully quantum Stochastic Density Functional Theory and a classical Finite-Difference Time Domain (FDTD) Maxwell solver. Spectral shifts were monitored as a…
Plasmonic nanostructures enable efficient light-to-energy conversion by concentrating optical energy into nanoscale volumes. A key mechanism in this process is chemical interface damping (CID), where surface plasmons are damped by adsorbed…
