Gold nanotube self-assemblage from tubular W2@Au16 cluster
Context
While the pure Au16 cluster tends to exist in a 3D cage shape, the doubly doped W2@Au16 is found to prefer a tubular form containing three five-membered Au rings stabilized by the W2 dimer vertically placed inside a tube-like Au16 framework. Formation of self-assembled nanotubes containing five-membered Au rings from the tube-like W2@Au16 cluster is also feasible, and such a tubular structure constitutes an ideal building block for generating gold-assembled nanotubes, providing us with a useful approach for designing some novel tailor-made materials with interesting optoelectronic properties.
Methods
Density functional theory (DFT) calculations using the TPSS functional and the cc-pVDZ-PP basis set are employed to determine some noticeable effects of the doping of the W2 dimer on the structure, stability, and optical properties of pure Au16 gold clusters.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Molecular Modeling focuses on "hardcore" modeling, publishing high-quality research and reports. Founded in 1995 as a purely electronic journal, it has adapted its format to include a full-color print edition, and adjusted its aims and scope fit the fast-changing field of molecular modeling, with a particular focus on three-dimensional modeling.
Today, the journal covers all aspects of molecular modeling including life science modeling; materials modeling; new methods; and computational chemistry.
Topics include computer-aided molecular design; rational drug design, de novo ligand design, receptor modeling and docking; cheminformatics, data analysis, visualization and mining; computational medicinal chemistry; homology modeling; simulation of peptides, DNA and other biopolymers; quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSAR) and ADME-modeling; modeling of biological reaction mechanisms; and combined experimental and computational studies in which calculations play a major role.
