Recent synthesis of fluorinated graphene introduced interesting stable derivatives of graphene. In particular, fluorographene (CF), namely fully fluorinated chair conformation, is found to display crucial features, such as high mechanical strength, charged surfaces, local magnetic moments due to vacancy defects and a wide band gap rapidly reducing with uniform strain. These properties, as well as structural parameters and electronic densities of states are found to scale with fluorine coverage. However, most of the experimental data reported to date neither for CF, nor for other CnF structures complies with the results obtained from first-principles calculations. In this study, we attempt to clarify the sources of disagreements.

The magnetic and electronic properties of metal phthalocyanines (MPc) and fluorinated metal phthalocyanines (F$_{16}$MPc) are studied by means of spin density functional theory (SDFT). Several metals (M) such as Ca, all first d-row transition metals and Ag are investigated. By considering different open shell transition metals it is possible to tune the electronic properties of MPc, in particular the electronic molecular gap and total magnetic moment. Besides assigning the structural and electronic properties of MPc and F$_{16}$MPc, the vibrational modes analysis of the ScPctextendash ZnPc series have been studied and correlated to experimental measurements when available.
We systematically explore chemical functionalization of monolayer black phosphorene via chemisorption of oxygen and fluorine atoms. Using the cluster expansion technique, with vary- ing concentration of the adsorbate, we determine the ground states considering both single- as well as double- side chemisorption, which have novel chemical and electronic properties. The nature of the bandgap depends on the concentration of the adsorbate: for fluorination the direct bandgap first decreases, and then increases while becoming indirect, with increasing fluorination, while for oxidation the bandgap first increases and then decreases, while mostly maintaining its direct nature. Further we find that the unique anisotropic free-carrier effective mass for both the electrons and holes, can be changed and even rotated by 90 degrees, with controlled chemisorption, which can be useful for exploring unusual quantum Hall effect, and novel electronic devices based on phosphorene.
The generalized tight-binding model, based on the subenvelope functions of distinct sublattices, is developed to investigate the magnetic quantization in sliding bilayer graphenes. The relative shift of two graphene layers induces a dramatic transformation between the Dirac-cone structure and the parabolic band structure, and thus leads to drastic changes of Landau levels (LLs) in the spatial symmetry, initial formation energy, intergroup anti-crossing, state degeneracy and semiconductor-metal transition. There exist three kinds of LLs, i.e., well-behaved, perturbed and undefined LLs, which are characterized by a specific mode, a main mode plus side modes, and a disordered mode, respectively. Such LLs are clearly revealed in diverse magneto-optical selection rules. Specially, the undefined LLs frequently exhibit intergroup anti-crossings in the field-dependent energy spectra, and show a large number of absorption peaks without optical selection rules.
We investigate structural, magnetic, and electronic properties of SrFeAsF as a new parent for superconductors using state-of-the-art density-functional theory method. Calculated results show that striped antiferromagnetic order is the magnetic ground state in the Fe layer and interlayer magnetic interaction is tiny. Calculated As and Sr positions are in agreement with experiment. There are only two uniaxially-dispersed bands near the Fermi level. The valent charge is mainly in the Fe and F layers, and the magnetic moment is confined to the Fe atoms. Inter-Fe-spin couplings is due to superexchange through As atoms. These are useful to understanding the SrFeAsF and should have helpful implications to doped samples.
We give the results of density functional calculations for graphene with a widely varying fluorine adsorptions. We give a systematic analysis of the adsorption energies, lattice constants, bulk modulus, bandgap openings, and magnetic properties. We find that a number of different adsorption geometries and a range of physical properties can occur for each adsorbate coverage. The systems are found to range from metallic to semiconducting with widely vary band gaps, and a number of interesting magnetic phases are found. We expect that many of these structures may occur in real materials systems. Further that a listing of the properties found here may help in determining what fluorinated graphenes are produced experimentally.
