An extended cluster expansion for ground states of heterofullerenes. Sci Rep 2017; 7:16211. [PMID: 29176732 PMCID: PMC5701149 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-16469-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2017] [Accepted: 11/13/2017] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
It is challenging to determine the ground states of heterofullerenes due to the numerous isomers. Taking the C60-nBn heterofullerenes (1 ≤ n ≤ 4) as an example, our first-principles calculations with the isomer enumeration present the most stable structure of C57B3, which is energetically favored by 0.73 eV than the reported counterpart. It was difficult to conduct the enumeration for the isomers with n beyond 4 because of the expensive first-principle calculations. Here, we propose a nomenclature to enhance structural recognition and adopt an extended cluster expansion to describe the structural stabilities, in which the energies of the heterofullerenes with various concentrations are predicted by linear combination of the multi-body interactions. Unlike the conventional cluster expansion, the interaction parameters are derived from the enumeration of C60-nBn (n = 1~4), where there are only 4 coefficients to be fitted as a function of composition for the consideration of local bonding. The cross-validation scores are 1~2 meV per atom for both C55B5 and C54B6, ensuring the ground states obtained from our model are in line with the first-principles results. With the help of the structural recognition, the extended cluster expansion could be further applied to other binary systems as an effective complement to the first-principle calculations.

Abstract
Carbon nitride materials have extraordinary potential in various applications, including catalysts, filled-particles, and superhard materials. Carbon nitride nanoclusters have been prepared under mild solvothermal conditions by a reaction between 1,3,5-trichlotriazine and sodium azide in toluene. The bulk material formed has a C(3)N(4) composition and consists of spheres with diameters ranging from approximately 1 nm to 4 mum. Nanometer-sized clusters of C(3)N(4) stoichiometry have been isolated on surfaces by sublimation or simple physicochemical methods. The clusters have then been characterized by atomic force microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The laser desorption ionization mass spectra show peaks assignable to the C(12)N(16), C(21)N(28), and C(33)N(44) molecules which could correspond to cage structures with 4, 7, and 11 units of the C(3)N(4) subunit, respectively. The structure and stability of these new nitrogen-rich carbon nitride nanocages has been investigated using density functional theory calculations.

Abstract
A systematic survey of the complete set of isomers of fullerenes C(38), C(40), C(42), C(44), C(46), C(48), C(50) and azafullerene C(44)N(6) is reported. All isomeric structures were optimized using first-principle density functional theory at the B3LYP/6-31G level. The isomeric structures with the lowest energies are C(38):17, C(40):38, C(42):45, C(44):75, C(44):89, C(46):109, C(48):171, and C(50):270. The ground-state structure of the azafullerene C(44)N(6) in the framework of C(50):270 has D(3) symmetry. The (13)C NMR chemical shifts and nucleus-independent chemical shifts (NICS) for the stable isomers of each fullerene are presented.

Abstract
We report numerical calculations on the quantum transport through C48N12 based devices from first principles. We find that the transport properties are very sensitive to orientations of the molecules to the electrode. Different orientations can give rise to semiconducting to metallic behaviors. Our results show that the charge transfer which can be tuned by the gate voltage plays an important role in determining the transport properties. By varying the gate voltages, the transport properties can be changed from semiconducting to metallic behaviors and thereby magnifying effect can be achieved.

Abstract
Our first-principles calculations demonstrate that C(60-n)B(n) and C(60-m)N(m) can be engineered as the acceptors and donors, respectively, needed for molecular electronics by properly controlling the dopant number n and m in C60. We show that acceptor C48B12 and donor C48N12 are promising components for molecular rectifiers, carbon nanotube-based n-p-n (p-n-p) transistors, and p-n junctions.
