The structure and ground state of each fragmental ion are C∞v (4Σ+ or Σ ), D∞h (4Σg ), D3 (4A1 ), C2 or Td or C3v (4A1), and D3 (4A1 ) or C4 ( A1 ) sequentially 6 + + ′ ′ ′ 2 ′ h v h v with n = 1～5. For the compound Fe(HCN)6 , the possible geometry was not obtained. The + sequential incremental interaction energy (–?(?E)), dissociation energy (?D0), enthalpy (–?(?H)) and Gibbs free energy (–?(?G)), and frequencies for HCN-Fe(HCN)n + -1 were also calculated, and the results are all in good agreement with the experiments. The bond length of Fe–N is lengthened with the increase of cluster size, and the strength of Fe+–N coordination bond varies nonmon- tonically as increasing the number of ligands. The Fe+–N bond of Fe(HCN)2 is the strongest in all + compounds.展开更多

In this paper, the systematic density functional simulations are conducted to study the separation of H_2 from the impurity gases(H_2, N_2, H_2 O, CO, Cl_2, and CH_4) by the bilayer porous graphitic carbon nitride(g-C_3 N_4) membrane. Theoretically, the bilayer g-C3 N4 membrane with a diameter of about3.25 A? should be a perfect candidate for H_2 purification from these mixed gases, which is verified by the high selectivity(S) for H_2 over other kinds of gases(3.43 × 1028 for H_2/N2; 1.40 × 1028 for H_262/H_2 O; 1.60 × 10 for H_2/CO; 4.30 × 10^(14) for H_2/Cl_2; 2.50 × 10^(55) for H_2/CH_4), and the permeance(P) of H_2(13 mol/m^2·s·Pa) across the bilayer g-C_3 N_4 membrane at 300 K, which should be of great potential in energy and environmental research. Our studies highlight a new approach towards the final goal of high P and high S molecular-sieving membranes used in simple structural engineering.展开更多
