Gd endohedral complexes of C82 fullerenols were synthesized and mass spectrometry analysis of their composition was carried out. It was established that the synthesis yields a series of fullerenols Gd@C82Ox(OH)y (x = 0, 3; y = 8, 16, 24, 36, 44). The atomic and electronic structure and properties of the synthesized fullerenols were investigated using the density functional theory calculations. It was shown that the presence of endohedral gadolinium increases the reactivity of fullerenols. It is proposed that the high-spin endohedral fullerenols are promising candidates for application in magnetic resonance imaging.

We theoretically investigate the electronic and magnetic structure of Fe 2 Hf. The density functional theory calculations are shown to produce the negative, easy-plane, magnetic anisotropy in the hexagonal Fe 2 Hf. Antimony substitution suppresses the planar magnetization direction and favors the uniaxial magnetic anisotropy, in agreement with experimental observations. Our study suggests the possibility of the chemical control of the magnetic anisotropy in Fe 2 Hf by Sb substitution, and illustrates the potential of (Fe,Sb) 2 + x Hf 1 − x Laves phase alloys for the permanent magnet applications.

The infrared spectra of tetrakis(dibutylamino) phthalocyanine and octakis(dibutylamino) compounds were studied via theoretical investigations. The results reveal deep fusion of the peripheral alkylamino moieties with the phthalocyanine chromophore in the tetrakis(dibutylamino)- but not in the octakis(dibutylamino)-phthalocyanine compounds. The successive localized molecular orbitals (LMO) and bond order analyses give support for the infrared vibrational results.

There are many areas in the world where the ground water has been contaminated by arsenic. One process to purify the water is to use TiO2 to adsorb the arsenic. As the TiO2 surface can be cleaned and reused, it has a promising potential as a water purifier. In this paper, the plane-wave function method, based on the density functional theory, has been used to calculate the structures of arsenic(III) on a perfect TiO2 anatase (1 0 1) surface. All the arsenic(III) solution species such as H3AsO3, H2AsO3-1, HAsO3-2 and AsO3-3 are put onto the surface with many different possible structures to obtain the adsorption energy. Based on the adsorption energy, the bidentate binuclear (BB) adsorption configurations of arsenic(III) on the surface are more favorable at low concentrations, whereas BB form and monodentate mononuclear (MM) form may coexist at higher concentrations. The models and results fit well with published experimental results. The results and conclusions will be of benefit to further research on arsenite adsorption and its photocatalytic oxidation on a TiO2 surface.
