PROJECTION OF SINGLE-DETERMINANT SOLUTIONS OF SPIN-POLARIZED SELF-CONSISTENT FIELD EQUATIONS IN THE BASIS SET OF SPIN-PAIRED ORBITALS
A new scheme is presented for obtaining a pure spin state for the one-determinant wave function built on Hartree–Fock or Kohn–Sham orbitals. In this scheme, the unrestricted determinant is expanded in restrict...

Modeling Active Centers in Ammonia Synthesis. DFT Study of Dissociative Adsorption of N2 on Ru Clusters
Models of possible active centers (AC) of nitrogen adsorption on ruthenium clusters are suggested. An AC is represented by a labile Run (n = 6, 7) cluster stabilized in carbon nanotubes. Nanotubes are modeled by ...

Nest Defect as the Site of Stabilization of Transition Element Ions Implanted in High-Silica Zeolites. Cluster Calculation of Fe(II) and Fe(III) Ions Entrapped by the Zeolite Matrix
Cluster calculations of the structure of the nest defect in zeolites were carried out by the density functional theory (DFT) method. The hydroxyl groups of the defect form an ordered structure stabilized by hy...

Oxygen diffusion through the Ag(111) surface: A quantum chemical study by the NDDO/MC method
Atomic forms of oxygen on the (111) face of metallic silver are studied by the NDDO/MC semiempirical method. The surface (above the octahedral void) and subsurface (within the void) positions of oxygen between...

On the molecular models of lewis acid sites on the surface of γ-Al2O3 and in zeolites: a density functional study of CO adsorption
Adsorption complexes of CO-Lewis acid sites with 3- and 5-coordinated Al3+ are modeled by the density functional method using the cluster approach. Cluster models of the site with 4-coordinated Al3+ on the surfac...

Coordination behavior of the core and valence levels of low-coordinated oxygen ions on the surface of magnesium oxide
For low-coordinated (N=2,3,4,5) oxygen ions on the surface and in the bulk of magnesium oxide, the behavior of the core O1s- and valence O2s-, O2p-levels is considered. The MgO 6 ...
