Periodic Density Matrix Embedding for CO Adsorption on the MgO(001) Surface.

ABSTRACT: The adsorption of simple gas molecules to metal oxide surfaces is a primary step in many heterogeneous catalysis applications. Quantum chemical modeling of these reactions is a challenge in terms of both cost and accuracy, and quantum-embedding methods are promising, especially for localized chemical phenomena. In this work, we employ density matrix embedding theory (DMET) for periodic systems to calculate the adsorption energy of CO to the MgO(001) surface. Using coupled-cluster theory with single and double excitations and second-order Møller-Plesset perturbation theory as quantum chemical solvers, we perform calculations with embedding clusters up to 266 electrons in 306 orbitals, with the largest embedding models agreeing to within 1.2 kcal/mol of the non-embedding references. Moreover, we present a memory-efficient procedure of storing and manipulating electron repulsion integrals in the embedding space within the framework of periodic DMET.

Adsorption and vibrational spectroscopy of CO on the surface of MgO from periodic local coupled-cluster theory.

Project description:The adsorption of CO on the surface of MgO has long been a model problem in surface chemistry. Here, we report periodic Gaussian-based calculations for this problem using second-order perturbation theory (MP2) and coupled-cluster theory with single and double excitations (CCSD) and perturbative triple excitations [CCSD(T)], with the latter two performed using a recently developed extension of the local natural orbital approximation to problems with periodic boundary conditions. The low cost of periodic local correlation calculations allows us to calculate the full CCSD(T) binding curve of CO approaching the surface of MgO (and thus the adsorption energy) and the two-dimensional potential energy surface (PES) as a function of the distance from the surface and the CO stretching coordinate. From the PES, we obtain the fundamental vibrational frequency of CO on MgO, whose shift from the gas phase value is a common experimental probe of surface adsorption. We find that CCSD(T) correctly predicts a positive frequency shift upon adsorption of +14.7 cm-1, in excellent agreement with the experimental shift of +14.3 cm-1. We use our CCSD(T) results to assess the accuracy of MP2, CCSD, and several density functional theory (DFT) approximations, including exchange correlation functionals and dispersion corrections. We find that MP2 and CCSD yield reasonable binding energies and frequency shifts, whereas many DFT calculations overestimate the magnitude of the adsorption energy by 5-15 kJ mol-1 and predict a negative frequency shift of about -20 cm-1, which we attribute to self-interaction-induced delocalization errors that are mildly ameliorated with hybrid functionals. Our findings highlight the accuracy and computational efficiency of the periodic local correlation for the simulation of surface chemistry with accurate wavefunction methods.

Periodic Mesoporous Organosilica Nanocubes with Ultrahigh Surface Areas for Efficient CO₂ Adsorption.

Project description:Ultrahigh surface area single-crystals of periodic mesoporous organosilica (PMOs) with uniform cubic or truncated-cubic morphology and organic/inorganic components homogeneously distributed over the whole frameworks have successfully been prepared by a sol-gel surfactant-templating method. By tuning the porous feature and polymerization degree, the surface areas of the obtained PMO nanocubes can reach as high as 2370 m(2)/g, which is the highest for silica-based mesoporous materials. The ultrahigh surface area of the obtained PMO single crystals is mainly resulted from abundant micropores in the mesoporous frameworks. Furthermore, the diameter of the nanocubes can also be well controlled from 150 to 600 nm. The materials show ultrahigh CO2 adsorption capacity (up to 1.42 mmol/g at 273 K) which is much higher than other porous silica materials and comparable to some carbonaceous materials. The adsorption of CO2 into the PMO nanocubes is mainly in physical interaction, therefore the adsorption-desorption process is highly reversible and the adsorption capacity is much dependent on the surface area of the materials. Moreover, the selectivity is also very high (~11 times to N2) towards CO2 adsorption.

Density Matrix Embedding Using Multiconfiguration Pair-Density Functional Theory.

Project description:We present a quantum embedding method for ground and excited states of extended systems that uses multiconfiguration pair-density functional theory (MC-PDFT) with densities provided by periodic density matrix embedding theory (pDMET). We compute local excitations in oxygen mono- and divacancies on a magnesium oxide (100) surface and find absolute deviations within 0.05 eV between pDMET using the MC-PDFT, denoted as pDME-PDFT, and the more expensive, nonembedded MC-PDFT approach. We further use pDME-PDFT to calculate local excitations in larger supercells for the monovacancy defect, for which the use of nonembedded MC-PDFT is prohibitively costly.

Charge and adsorption height dependence of the self-metalation of porphyrins on ultrathin MgO(001) films.

Project description:We have experimentally determined the adsorption structure, charge state, and metalation state of porphin, the fundamental building block of porphyrins, on ultrathin Ag(001)-supported MgO(001) films by scanning tunneling microscopy and photoemission spectroscopy, supported by calculations based on density functional theory. By tuning the substrate work function to values below and above the critical work function for charging, we succeeded in the preparation of 2H-P monolayers which contain negatively charged and uncharged molecules. It is shown that the porphin molecules self-metalate at room temperature, forming the corresponding Mg-porphin, irrespective of their charge state. This is in contrast to self-metalation of tetraphenyl porphyrin (TPP), which occurs on planar MgO(001) only if the molecules are negatively charged. The different reactivity is explained by the reduced molecule-substrate distance of the planar porphin molecule compared to the bulkier TPP. The results of this study shed light on the mechanism of porphyrin self-metalation on oxides and highlight the role of the adsorption geometry on the chemical reactivity.

Projection-Based Density Matrix Renormalization Group in Density Functional Theory Embedding.

Project description:The density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) method has already proved itself as a very efficient and accurate computational method, which can treat large active spaces and capture the major part of strong correlation. Its application on larger molecules is, however, limited by its own computational scaling as well as demands of methods for treatment of the missing dynamical electron correlation. In this work, we present the first step in the direction of combining DMRG with density functional theory (DFT), one of the most employed quantum chemical methods with favorable scaling, by means of the projection-based wave function (WF)-in-DFT embedding. On two proof-of-concept but important molecular examples, we demonstrate that the developed DMRG-in-DFT approach provides a very accurate description of molecules with a strongly correlated fragment.

Understanding adsorption-desorption dynamics of BMP-2 on hydroxyapatite (001) surface.

Project description:The interaction between protein molecules and the hydroxyapatite (HAP) crystal is an important research topic in many fields. However, the nature of their noncovalent bonding is still not clear at the atomic level. In this work, molecular dynamics simulation, steered molecular dynamics simulation, and quantum chemistry calculations were used to study the adsorption-desorption dynamics of BMP-2 on HAP (001) surface. The results suggest that there are three types of functional groups through which BMP-2 can interact with HAP crystallite, and they are -OH, -NH(2), and -COO(-). Based on the different orientations of protein, each might interact with HAP crystallite individually, or, two or three of them can work cooperatively. Concerning the mechanisms of interaction, it is found that the water-bridged H-bond plays an important role, which is the main force for groups without net charges. If there were more than one set of adsorption groups for a certain orientation of protein, the adsorption-desorption process would likely be stepwise. On the contrary, if there were only one set, there would be only the key-adsorption period. The results of density functional theory calculations confirm the actual existence of this type of water-bridged H-bond. Furthermore, it is also found that the CHARMM27 force field could provide correct structural information qualitatively, although the data are slightly different from those obtained by UB3LYP/6-31G* method.

Effect of surface vacancies on the adsorption of Pd and Pb on MgO(100).

Project description:AbstractTheoretical quantum mechanical calculations have been carried out to establish the effect of surface vacancies on the adsorption of Pd and Pb atoms on the defective MgO(100) surface. The investigated defects included neutral, singly and doubly charged O and Mg vacancies on the (100) surface of MgO. These vacancies played the role of Fsn+ and Vsn- (n = 0, 1, 2) adsorption centers for a single Pd or Pb atom. From the results of calculations, it is clear that the Pd- and Pb-atom adsorption at the Fsn+ and Vsn- centers shows different characteristics than at the regular O2- and Mg2+ centers. Drastic changes in geometric, energetic, and electronic parameters are evident in Pd/Vsn- and Pb/Vsn-. The effect of Fs0 and Fs+, which in practice are the most important vacancies, is smaller, yet the adsorption of Pd and Pb at these centers is more energetically favorable than at the regular O2- center. Of the two metals studied, the atom of Pd is bound by the Fs0 and Fs+ centers with higher adsorption energies.Graphical abstract

Tunable magnetic anisotropy of antiferromagnetic NiO in (Fe)/NiO/MgO/Cr/MgO(001) epitaxial multilayers.

Project description:We report on the magnetic properties of antiferromagnetic NiO(001) thin films in epitaxially grown NiO/MgO(dMgO)/Cr/MgO(001) system for different thicknesses of MgO, dMgO. Results of X-ray Magnetic Linear Dichroism show that together with an increase of dMgO, rotation of NiO spins from in-plane towards out-of-plane direction occurs. Furthermore, we investigated how the proximity of Fe modifies the magnetic state of NiO in Fe/NiO/MgO(dMgO)/Cr/MgO(001). We proved the existence of a multidomain state in NiO as a result of competition between the ferromagnet/antiferromagnet exchange coupling and strain exerted on the NiO by the MgO buffer layer.

Antiferromagnetic proximity effect in epitaxial CoO/NiO/MgO(001) systems.

Project description:Magnetic proximity effect between two magnetic layers is an important focus of research for discovering new physical properties of magnetic systems. Antiferromagnets (AFMs) are fundamental systems with magnetic ordering and promising candidate materials in the emerging field of antiferromagnetic spintronics. However, the magnetic proximity effect between antiferromagnetic bilayers is rarely studied because detecting the spin orientation of AFMs is challenging. Using X-ray linear dichroism and magneto-optical Kerr effect measurements, we investigated antiferromagnetic proximity effects in epitaxial CoO/NiO/MgO(001) systems. We found the antiferromagnetic spin of the NiO underwent a spin reorientation transition from in-plane to out-of-plane with increasing NiO thickness, with the existence of vertical exchange spring spin alignment in thick NiO. More interestingly, the Néel temperature of the CoO layer was greatly enhanced by the adjacent NiO layer, with the extent of the enhancement closely dependent on the spin orientation of NiO layer. This phenomenon was attributed to different exchange coupling strengths at the AFM/AFM interface depending on the relative spin directions. Our results indicate a new route for modifying the spin configuration and ordering temperature of AFMs through the magnetic proximity effect near room temperature, which should further benefit the design of AFM spintronic devices.

Morphology dependent interaction between Co(II)-tetraphenylporphyrin and the MgO(100) surface.

Project description:Porphyrins are key elements in organic-inorganic hybrid systems for a wide range of applications. Understanding their interaction with the substrate gives a handle on structural and electronic device properties. Here we investigate a single transition-metal porphyrin, namely Co(ii)-tetraphenylporphyrin (CoTPP), on the MgO(100) surface and the effect of multilayer film formation within hybrid density-functional theory and many-body perturbation theory. We focus on the relevant adsorption sites, simulate their photoemission spectra as a key fingerprint and compare with experiments on MgO(100) films on Ag(100). While we find only weak interaction between the cobalt centre and terrace sites on the MgO(100) surface, a strong interaction manifests itself with the low-coordinated sites. This leads to distinct features in both the valence and core-level regions of the electronic structure, as observed in the ultraviolet and X-ray photoemission spectra, corroborated by simulated spectra and calculated cobalt core-level shifts. Our work thus demonstrates the relevance of morphology-related low-coordinated sites and their properties in the adsorption of CoTPP on the MgO(100) surface.
