  1. 6. Redox Reactions of NO and O2 in Iron Enzymes : A Density Functional Theory Study

    Författare :Mattias Blomberg; Per Siegbahn; Adrian Mulholland; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; enzyme catalysis; redox reactions; cytochrome oxidase; nitric oxide reductase; hyponitrous acid anhydride; peroxynitrite; myoglobin; prostaglandin synthase; PGHS; NO; N2O; O2; CO; Chemical physics; Kemisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : In the present thesis the density functional B3LYP has been used to study reactions of NO and O2 in redox active enzymes.Reduction of nitric oxide (NO) to nitrous oxide (N2O) is an important part in the bacterial energy conservation (denitrification). LÄS MER

  2. 7. Van der Waals Interactions in Density Functional Theory

    Författare :Erika Hult; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; van der Waals interaction; exchange-correlation energy; adhesion; intermolecular forces; physisorption; density functional theory;

    Sammanfattning : Density functional theory is a very important method for calculating ground-state properties for atoms, molecules and solids. Albeit exact in principle, its implementation requires an approximation for the so-called exchange-correlation energy. LÄS MER

  3. 8. Density Functional Theory Applied to Materials for Spintronics

    Författare :Diana Mihaela Iusan; Olle Eriksson; Biplab Sanyal; Hiroshi Katayama-Yoshida; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; spintronics; dilute magnetic semiconductors; density functional theory; exchange interactions; magnetic percolation; ordering temperature; disorder; electronic structure; Physics; Fysik; Materialvetenskap; Materials Science;

    Sammanfattning : The properties of dilute magnetic semiconductors have been studied by combined ab initio, Monte Carlo, and experimental techniques. This class of materials could be very important for future spintronic devices, that offer enriched functionality by making use of both the spin and the charge of the electrons. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Atomistic modelling of functional solid oxides for industrial applications : Density Functional Theory, hybrid functional and GW-based studies

    Författare :Cecilia Århammar; Rajeev Ahuja; Steven Louie; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; density functional theory; oxides; GW; Condensed matter physics; Kondenserade materiens fysik; Magnetism; Magnetism; Defects and diffusion; Defekter och diffusion;

    Sammanfattning : In this Thesis a set of functional solid oxides for industrial applications have been addressed by first principles and thermodynamical modelling. More specificially, measurable quantities such as Gibbs free energy, geometry and electronic structure have been calculated and compared when possible with experimental data. LÄS MER
