We show that intercalation of cations (Na+, Ca2+, Ni2+, and Co2+) into the interlayer region 1T-MoS2 is an effective strategy to lower overpotential for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). In acidic media onset potential with intercalated ions lowered by ∼60 mV relative pristine (onset ∼180 mV). Density functional theory (DFT) calculations a lowering in Gibbs free energy H-adsorption (ΔGH) on these structures intercalant-free 1T-MoS2. The DFT suggest Na+ results ΔGH close zero. Consistent...

In this paper, optical and electronic properties of diamond shaped graphene quantum dots (DQDs) have been studied by employing large-scale electron-correlated calculations. The computations performed using the \pi-electron Pariser-Parr-Pople model Hamiltonian, which incorporates long-range Coulomb interactions. influence electron-correlation effects on ground excited states has included means configuration-interaction approach, used at various levels. Our calculations revealed that...

Several years ago, Angliker et al. [ Chem. Phys. Lett. 1982 , 87 208 ] predicted nonacene to be the first linear acene with triplet state 1(3)B2u as ground state, instead of singlet 1(1)Ag state. However, contrary that prediction, in a recent experimental work, Tönshoff and Bettinger Angew. Int. Ed. 2010 49 4125 demonstrated has Motivated by this finding, we decided perform systematic theoretical investigation nature low-lying excited states long acenes, an emphasis on singlet-triplet gap,...

Significance Photostrictive compounds are promising device materials because of their fundamental photophysical properties and light-induced strain applications. Although molecular charge-transfer crystals exhibiting light–matter interactions have been successfully deployed in optoelectronics, an air-stable material that couples photons electrons, achieving photostriction through the coupling light mechanical degrees freedom, has not yet discovered. Herein, we report a substantial dilation...
