The thermodynamic and kinetic aspects of the methanolysis and hydrolysis reactions of glycerol triacetate or triacetin, a model triacylglycerol compound, were investigated by using Density Functional Theory (DFT) at the B3LYP/6-31++G(d,p)…
We have carried out first-principles calculations on electronic properties of graphene quantum dots embedded in hexagonal boron nitride monolayer sheets. The calculations with density functional theory show that the band gaps of quantum…
We present a density-functional theory (DFT) approach to the study of the phase diagram of the maximum density droplet (MDD) in two-dimensional quantum dots in a magnetic field. Within the lowest Landau level (LLL) approximation, analytical…
Density functional theory (DFT), the most widely adopted method in modern computational chemistry, fails to describe accurately the electronic structure of strongly correlated systems. Here we show that DFT can be formally and practically…
On the basis of first-principles calculations and the special displacement method, we demonstrate the quantum confinement scaling law of the phonon-induced gap renormalization of graphene quantum dots (GQDs). We employ zigzag-edged GQDs…

Million-atom quantum simulations are in principle feasible with Orbital-Free Density Functional Theory (OF-DFT) because the algorithms only require simple functional minimizations with respect to the electron density function. In this…
