Abstract
We performed a spectroscopic study on them-MTDATA (donor) and PPT (acceptor) molecular vertical heterostructure. The electronic properties of the donor/acceptor interface have been comprehensively characterized by synchrotron radiation-based photoelectron spectroscopy and near-edge x-ray absorption fine structure. The spectroscopic results reveal the existence of new hybridization states in the original molecular energy gap, likely attributed to the interaction between the donor and the acceptor molecules at the interface. Such hybridized states can have a significant impact on the charge transport in organic electronic devices based on donor-acceptor molecules and can explain the increased efficiency of device using such molecules.

Abstract
Multicomponent gas separation and purification is an important pre- or post-processing step in industry. Herein, we employed a multiscale computational approach to investigate the possibility of multicomponent low-weight gas (H2, O2, N2, CO2, CH4) separation and purification using novel porous 2D carbonaceous nanomaterials, namely Graphdiyne (GD), Graphenylene (GN), and Rhombic-Graphyne (RG). The dispersion-corrected plane-wave density functional theory (DFT) calculation combined with the Climbing Image Nudged Elastic Band (CI-NEB) method was employed to study the gas/membrane interaction energy and diffusion barrier of different gases passing through the geometrically optimized membranes. The results from CI-NEB calculations were then fitted to the Morse potential function to construct a bridge between quantum mechanics calculations and non-equilibrium molecular dynamics (NEMD) simulation. The selectivity of each membrane for all binary mixtures was calculated using the estimated diffusion energy barriers based on the Arrhenius equation. Finally, a series of extensive NEMD simulations were carried out to evaluate the real word and time dependent separation process. According to the results, CH4 molecules can be completely separated from the other gases using a GD membrane, O2 molecules from CH4, N2, and CO2 by a GN membrane, and H2 molecules from all other gases using a RG membrane.

Abstract
A computational study via periodic density functional theory of porous nanotubes derived from single-layer surfaces of porous hexagonal boron nitride nanotubes (PBNNTs) and inorganic graphenylene-like boron nitride nanotubes (IGP-BNNTs) has been carried out with the main focus in its piezoelectric behavior. The simulations showed that the strain provides a meaningful improve in the piezoelectric response on the zigzag porous boron nitride nanotubes. Additionally, its stability, possible formation, elastic, and electronic properties were analyzed, and for comparison purpose, the porous graphene and graphenylene nanotubes were studied. From the elastic properties study, it was found that IGP-BNNTs exhibited a higher rigidity because of the influence of the superficial porous area, as compared to PBNNTs. The present study provides evidence that the strain is a way to maximize the piezoelectric response and make this material a good candidate for electromechanical devices.
