Density functional theory (DFT) calculations are performed to investigate the structures of small silsesquioxanes (Si2nO3nX2n) (n=1-5 and X=H, F, Me). The large HOMO–LUMO gaps, which range from 5.41 to 9.17 eV, imply optimal electronic structures for these molecules. Furthermore, the substituent effect analysis indicate that the electron donating methyl group substituents lengthen the Si-O bond and largen the SiOSi bond angle, the electron withdrawing F atom substituents shorten the Si-O bond and lessen the SiOSi bond angle.

The structural and electronic properties of Li, Mg and Al deposited ZnO nanocages and their effects on the adsorption of formaldehyde molecule have been investigated using the density functional theory (DFT) computations. To understand the behavior of the adsorbed CH2O molecule on the ZnO nanocage, results of DFT calculations of the M-deposited nanocages (M=Li, Mg and Al), as well as complex systems consisting of the adsorbed CH2O molecule on M-deposited ZnO nanocage were reported. The results presented include adsorption energies, bond lengths, electronic configurations, density of states and molecular orbitals. It was found that, the most energetically stable adsorption configurations of CH2O molecule on the bare ZnO leads to 12% dilation in C=O bond length of CH2O and 14% decrease in HOMO-LUMO gap of ZnO cluster. The most energetically stable adsorption configurations of CH2O molecule on Li, Mg and Al-deposited ZnO lead to 4%, 4% and 11% dilation in C=O bond length of CH2O and-0.66, -45 and , +66% change in HOMO-LUMO gap of ZnO nanocages, respectively. The interaction between CH2O with bare ZnO and M-deposited ZnO nanocages is attributed to charge transfer mechanism. These results may be meaningful for CH2O degradation and detection.
