As an aid towards improving the treatment of exchange and correlation effects in electronic structure calculations, it is desirable to have a clear picture of concepts of exchange-correlation functionals in computational calculations. For achieving this aim, it is necessary to perform different theoretical methods for many groups of materials. We have performed hybrid density functional theory (DFT) methods to investigate the density charges of atoms in rings and cages of carbon nanotube. DFT methods are engaged and compared their results. We have also been inclined to see the impression of exchange and correlation on nuclearnuclear energy and electron-nuclear energy and kinetic energy. With due attention to existence methods, B3P86, B3PW91, B1B96, BLYP and B3LYP have used in this work.

Hard-Soft Acid-Base (HSAB) 이론은 일반적인 유기, 무기반응의 반응성을 설명하는데 사용되어 왔다. 밀도범함수이론(DFT)을 기반으로 한 계산을 통하여 반응을 기술하기 위해 필요한 화학 퍼텐셜, global/local hardness/softness와 Fukui 함수 등을 얻을 수 있다. B3LYP 수준 하에서 DFT 양자계산을 이용하여 유기 반응을 분석했을 때 local HSAB 이론의 적용여부와 장단점을 알아보고자 하였다. 1-subtituted 다이엔과 비대칭 친다이엔체를 이용한 딜스-알더 반응의 경우 local HSAB 이론을 적용시켜, 오쏘 이성질체가 주 화합물인 이유를 설명할 수 있었다. 작용기를 변화시켰을 때 나타나는 차이점에서 규칙적인 경향성을 볼 수 없다는 사실을 통해서 전자, 입체 효과로 딜스-알더 반응을 분석할 수 없었던 이유를 이해할 수 있었다. Thiocyanate 음이온의 알킬화 반응의 경우 local HSAB 이론을 적용시켰을 때, 얻은 값을 통해서 반응 지점의 선호도를 예측할 수 없었는데 이는 thiocyanate를 생성하는 반응이 속도론적 지배 하에서 우세하는 반응이기 때문이다.

Phase stability diagrams were constructed for magnesium alanate (Mg(AlH₄)₂) nanoparticles to investigate the reversible hydrogen storage reaction by using density functional theory. Our findings indicate that bulk Mg(AlH₄)₂ shows favorable hydrogen release, but unfavorable hydrogen uptake (adsorption) reactions. However, for Mg(AlH₄)₂ nanoparticles, it was observed that hydrogen release and recharge can be achieved by controlling the particle size and temperature. Furthermore, by predicting the decomposition phase diagram of Mg(AlH₄)₂ nanoparticles with varying hydrogen partial pressure, it was discovered that reversible dehydrogenation reactions can occur even in relatively large nanoparticles by controlling the hydrogen partial pressure.

The adsorption of various atmospheric harmful gases (COx, NOx, SOx) on graphene-like Germanene 2D sheet was theoretically investigated using density functional theory(DFT) method. The structures were fully optimized at the B3LYP/cc-pvDZ and CAM-B3LYP/cc-pvDZ levels of theory and confirmed to be a local minimum by the calculation of the harmonic vibrational frequencies. The adsorptions of gases on the Germanene sheet were predicted to be a physisorption process for CO, CO2, NO, and SO2 gases but to be a chemisorption process for NO2, SO, and SO2 gases.

앞의 논문에서 살펴 본바와 같이 밀도 범함수 이론에 바탕을 둔 제일 원리적 에너지 띠 계산 방법의 하나인 FLAPW(Full-potential Linearized Augmented Plane Wave) 방법 에 의해 표면, 계면, 초격자에서의 전자 구조및 자기적 성질, 그리고 구조적 성질이 잘 설명될수 있음을 보았다. 이러한 성공적 결과에도 불구하고 전자구조 계산 방법은 풀어야할 새로운 문제에 직면하고 있는데 그 중 중요한 것은 스핀-궤도 결합(spin-orbit coupling : SOC)을 어떻게 취급하며, 그 결과로 나타나는 자기 결정 이방성( magnetocrystallinge anisotropy : MCA)과 강자성 금속에서 나타나는 광자기적 효과를 설명하는 것이다.

We have performed density functional theory calculations for the surface structure of O/Pd(100)-p($2{\times}2$), formed by the adsorption of oxygen atoms of 0.25 ML. The oxygen atoms adsorb preferentially at the fourfold hollow site, and the calculated O-Pd bond length is $2,15{\AA}$, The first interlayer spacing ($d_{12}$) of Pd(100) expands by +0.8% due to the oxygen adsorption, which differs from the experimental value of +3.6% reported by a previous LEED study. Assuming that the LEED sample was possibly contaminated by hydrogen atoms, we also examined the effect of hydrogen impurities on the surface structure. Hydrogen atoms adsorbed on O/Pd(100)-p($2{\times}2$) are found to result in large expansions of $d_{12}$ of Pd(100). Our analysis estimates the amount of hydrogen atoms remaining on the LEED sample as -0.3 ML.

The density functional theory (DFT) calculations on $(H_2O)_n@C_{60}$, (n=1-10) complexes have been performed to elucidate hydrogen interaction between fullerene and water clusters. The optimized geometries, harmonic vibrational frequencies, and binding energies are predicted at various levels of theory. The harmonic vibrational frequencies for the molecules considered in this study show all real numbers implying true minima. We also compare the H-bond interaction between $(H_2O)_n$ and $(H_2O)_n@C_{60}$, (n=1-10) clusters.

As the development of available binder in the harsh conditions is needed, we propose the proper binder for high-voltage lithium-ion secondary batteries based on the quantum chemistry modeling. The optimized structures, HOMO (Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital) energies and ionization potentials of 4 binders, which were considered from monomer to tetramer, were investigated by the semi-empirical and DFT (Density Functional Theory) calculations. The results show that the ionization potential values by calculation tend to be close to the oxidation potentials from the measurement of linear sweep voltametry (LSV). The order of oxidative resistance from high value to low value is following: poly(hexafluropropylene), poly(vinylidene fluoride), poly(methyl acrylate) and poly(acryl amide). Also these results correspond with the experimental values. Thus, we find the reason why HOMO (Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital) energy of PHFP has the highest value than other binders by analysis of HOMO orbital structures.
