Our results indicate that both compounds are mechanically stable in structure Type 1 and possess negative formation energies. Additionally, ZrBAu and ZrAlAu display semiconducting behavior, with ZrBAu showing a direct band gap, 0.753 eV (0.774 eV) at point Γ→X and ZrAlAu exhibiting an indirect band gap, 0.431 eV (0.482 eV) at point Γ→Γ, using the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) and Modified Becke and Johnson-generalized gradient approximation (mBJ-GGA), respectively. Based on optical properties, both ZrBAu and ZrAlAu exhibit high optical conductivity within the visible spectrum. In terms of visible light absorption, ZrBAu primarily absorbs blue light, while ZrAlAu absorbs yellow, blue-green and violet light. However, both compounds are effective absorbers of UV light. Regarding thermoelectric performance, the thermoelectric parameters reveal that ZrBAu and ZrAlAu demonstrate significant p-type thermoelectric power. These half-Heusler alloys have a high-power factor, making them promising candidates for thermoelectric applications.","PeriodicalId":9819,"journal":{"name":"Chemphyschem","volume":"26 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143078734","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The source of these differences was explored computationally, using the DFT method. The results indicate that up to six radicals can be adsorbed on Ag(111) and Au(111), (top site), while only four can be adsorbed on Cu(111) (fcc site), each surface containing eight atoms. The diffusion of the radicals on the surface is very easy on silver and copper, as this is achieved with a very low barrier (0.06 eV and 0.15 eV for Ag(111) and Cu(111), respectively), while on Au(111), the barrier is higher, 0.51 eV. The formation of ethane via a reaction of two adsorbed radicals is thermodynamically plausible for all studied coverage ratios on the three surfaces, but kinetically, it is plausible at room temperature only on Au(111) and Ag(111) at full coverage. Ethane can also be produced on Au(111) and Ag(111) by a collision of a solvated radical and an adsorbed radical. This is a barrierless process. On Cu(111), the yield of such a process is CH4(aq), and an adsorbed CH2 which reacts further with a non-adsorbed water molecule to produce adsorbed CH3OH.","PeriodicalId":9819,"journal":{"name":"Chemphyschem","volume":"26 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cphc.202400979","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143078730","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Organic anode materials are potential for efficient SIBs because they are not sensitive to the size of metal ions. Yet they still suffer from shortcomings such as low electrical conductivity, and solubility in electrolyte. Formation of nanocomposite with carbon materials is an efficient way to address these issues. Herein, we design a thiophene-based carboxylate compound STT, and the STT@rGO nanocomposite is also in situ formed as anode material for SIBs. The reduced graphene oxide (rGO) could improve conductivity and decrease the solubility of the anode material. Compared to the pristine STT electrode, STT@rGO delivers a reversible specific capacity of 178 mAh g−1, with a capacity retention rate of 86 % after 1000 cycles. Moreover, full batteries are successfully assembled using the nanocomposite anode and the commercial cathode Na3V2(PO4)3, manifesting the potential applications of the nanocomposite as organic electrode materials.","PeriodicalId":9819,"journal":{"name":"Chemphyschem","volume":"26 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143073935","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Remarkably, the viscosities of these porous liquids were not significantly higher than those of the pure ionic liquids. While explaining these behaviours, we could elucidate how the stability and dynamic properties of porous ionic liquids are governed by the highly structured liquid phases, determined experimentally and using molecular dynamics simulations, and by the balance between particle-particle and ZIF-8-ionic liquid interactions, as evidenced by the heat effects measured during particle dispersion.","PeriodicalId":9819,"journal":{"name":"Chemphyschem","volume":"26 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-01-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cphc.202401101","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143064180","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For the case of the ionic liquid <math></math>\u0000, we investigate the performance of different force fields. Amongst them are non-polarizable models employing unity charges, a charge-scaled version of a non-polarizable model, a polarizable model and another non-polarizable model with refined Lennard-Jones parameters. We also study the influence of the system size on the dynamic properties. While all studied force field models capture qualitatively correct trends, only the polarizable force field and the non-polarizable force field with refined Lennard-Jones parameters provide quantitative agreement to reference data, making the latter model very attractive for the reason of lower computational costs.","PeriodicalId":9819,"journal":{"name":"Chemphyschem","volume":"26 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-01-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cphc.202401048","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143064095","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Density functional theory (DFT) is the workhorse to compute their electronic structure; however, it becomes very costly when dealing with reaction mechanisms involving large unit cells and vast configurational spaces. Semiempirical quantum mechanical (SQM) methods appear as an alternative approach to simulate such chemical systems at low computational cost, but their feasibility to model catalysis with MOFs is still unexplored. Thus, here we present a benchmark study on UiO-66 to evaluate the performance of SQM methods (PM6, PM7, GFN1-xTB, GFN2-xTB) against hybrid DFT (M06). We evaluate defective nodes, ligand exchange reactions, barrier heights, and host–guest interactions with metal nanoclusters. Despite some caveats, GFN1-xTB on properly constrained models is the best SQM method across all studied properties. Under proper supervision, this protocol holds promise for application in exploratory high-throughput screenings of Zr-based MOF catalysts, subject to further refinement with more accurate methods.","PeriodicalId":9819,"journal":{"name":"Chemphyschem","volume":"26 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-01-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143064189","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
