Compounds crystallizing in the structure of NaZr$_2$(PO$_4$)$_3$ (NZP) are considered as promising materials for solid state electrolytes in Li-ion batteries. Using density functional theory (DFT), a systematic computational screening of 18…
The performance of phosphorus-based lubricant additives is governed by their adsorption, stability, and reactivity at the metal interface. In this study, we investigate the adsorption behavior and tribochemical stability of three additives:…
We investigate parameter dependence of the calculated $\beta$-decay properties, as well as low-lying states for the neutron-rich Zr isotopes within the neutron-proton interacting boson model (IBM-2) and interacting boson-fermion-fermion…
Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) is the supporting substrate of choice for two-dimensional material devices because it is atomically flat and chemically inert. However, due to the small size of mechanically exfoliated hBN flakes, electronic…
In this paper, structural and electronic properties and stability of (10, 0) born nitride nanotube (BNNT) are considered within density functional theory by doping group IV elements of the periodic table. The HOMO-LUMO gap has been strongly…
Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) is an important commercial polymer, bearing atactic stereochemistry resulting from nonselective radical polymerization. As such, an accurate, fundamental understanding of governing interactions among PAN molecular…
The effects of edge chemistry on the relative stability and electronic properties of zigzag boron nitride nanoribbons (ZBNNRs) are investigated. Among all functional groups considered, fully hydroxylated ZBNNRs are found to be the most…
Using first principles calculations, we study the ground-state structure of bulk proton-exchanged lithium niobate, which is also called hydrogen niobate and is widely used in waveguides. Thermodynamics helps to establish the most favorable…
Photocatalytic nitrogen reduction under ambient conditions represents a promising pathway toward sustainable ammonia production. However, the fundamental mechanisms, particularly the role of photogenerated charge carriers and their…
This computational study investigates glyphosate adsorption mechanisms on hydroxyl-functionalized carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as an alternative approach for environmental remediation. Single-walled CNTs with (10,0) zigzag chirality were…
We theoretically investigate the stability and transport properties of topological interface states (IFs) in 9-7-9 and 15-13-15 armchair graphene nanoribbon heterostructures (AGNRHs) laterally embedded in boron nitride (BN) sheets. Two…
Magnetite, a naturally abundant mineral, frequently interacts with water in both natural settings and various technical applications, making the study of its surface chemistry highly relevant. In this work, we investigate the hydrogen…
The electronic and piezoelectric properties of the boron nitride (BN) nanotubes are investigated with the hybrid density functional (B3LYP) method. We first study bulk h-BN and BN sheet and find that the B3LYP band structure and energy gap…
Upon introduction into a biological system, engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) rapidly associate with a variety of biomolecules such as proteins and lipids to form a biocorona. The presence of biocorona influences nano-bio interactions…
Arylazopyrazoles (AAPs) as substitutes for azo derivatives have gained considerable attention due to their superior properties offering E/Z photo-isomerization with high yield. In order to compare and quantify their performance, azobenzene…
Cementitious materials are widely used for hazardous-waste encapsulation, yet the molecular mechanisms governing heavy-metal ion retention across different gel chemistries remain insufficiently resolved. Here, classical molecular dynamics…
Hexagonal boron nitride ($\it h$-BN) exhibits dominant $\pi$-bands near the Fermi level, similar to graphene. However, unlike graphene, where tight-binding (TB) models accurately reproduce band edges near the $K$ and $K^{\prime}$ points in…
Due to their favorable properties and high porosity, zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) have recently received much limelight for key technologies such as energy storage, optoelectronics, sensorics, and catalysis. Despite the widespread…
Hydroxyapatite (HA) on a magnesium (Mg) surface is studied using density functional theory, to help understand the effect of HA coating and alloying in the surfaces of Mg-based biodegradable implants. We determine the adsorption energies…
