Present paper is a review of results, obtained in the framework of semiclassical approach in nanophysics. Semiclassical description, based on Electrostatics and Thomas-Fermi model was applied to calculate dimensions of the electronic shell of a fullerene molecule and a carbon nanotube. This simplified approach yields surprisingly accurate results in some cases. Semiclassical approach provides rather good description of the dimensions of the electronic shell of a fullerene molecule. Two types of dipole oscillations in a fullerene molecule were considered and their frequencies were calculated. Similar calculations were performed for a carbon nanotube also. These results look rather reasonable. Three types of dipole oscillations in carbon nanotube were considered and their frequencies were calculated. Frequencies of the longitudinal collective oscillations of delocalized electrons in carbon peapod were calculated as well. Metallic cluster was modeled as a spherical ball. It was shown that metallic cluster is stable; its bulk modulus and the frequency of the dipole oscillation of the electronic shell relative to the ions were calculated.

A detailed simple model is applied to study a metallic cluster. It is assumed that the ions and delocalized electrons are distributed randomly throughout the cluster. The delocalized electrons are assumed to be degenerate. A spherical ball models the
shape of a cluster. The energy of the microscopic electrostatic field around the ions is taken into account and calculated. It is shown in the framework of the model that the cluster is stable. Equilibrium radius of a ball and the energy of the equilibrium cluster are calculated. Bulk modulus of a cluster is calculated also.
We report first principles theory based electronic structure studies of a semiconducting stoichiometric cage-like Cd9Te9 cluster. Substantial changes are observed in the electronic structure of the cluster on passivation with fictitious hydrogen atom
s, in particular, widening of the energy gap between highest occupied molecular orbital and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital and enhancement in stability of cluster is seen. The cluster, when substitutionally mono-doped for a Cd by a set of 3d and 4d transition metal atoms (Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ru, Rh and Pd), is found to acquire polarization as seen from spin resolved density of states near Fermi level. Further, such mono-doping in passivated cluster shows half-metallic behavior. Mapping of partial density of states of each system on that of undoped cluster reveals additional levels caused by doping each TM atom separately. In the 3d elemental doping, Ti and Mn doping result into electron type doping whereas all other cases result into hole doped systems. For all the 4d elements studied, it is akin to the doping with holes for Cd substitution in the outer ring, whereas for Ru and Rh, there is electron type doping in case of substitution for Cd in central ring upon passivation. A comparison of partial density of states plots for bare and passivated clusters, on doping with transition metal atoms, suggests suitability of the cage-like cluster for spintronics applications.
Using calculations from first principles, we herein consider the bond made between thiolat e with a range of different Au clusters, with a particular focus on the spin moments inv olved in each case. For odd number of gold atoms, the clusters show a
spin moment of 1.~ $mu_B$. The variation of spin moment with particle size is particularly dramatic, with t he spin moment being zero for even numbers of gold atoms. This variation may be linked w ith changes in the odd-even oscillations that occur with the number of gold atoms, and is associated with the formation of a S-Au bond. This bond leads to the presence of an extra electron that is mainly sp in character in the gold part. Our results sugg est that any thiolate-induced magnetism that occurs in gold nanoparticles may be locali zed in a shell below the surface, and can be controlled by modifying the coverage of the thiolates.
Understanding the structure and chemical composition at the liquid-nanoparticle (NP) interface is crucial for a wide range of physical, chemical and biological processes. In this study, direct imaging of the liquid-NP interface by atom probe tomograp
hy (APT) is reported for the first time, which reveals the distributions and the interactions of key atoms and molecules in this critical domain. The APT specimen is prepared by controlled graphene encapsulation of the solution containing nanoparticles on a metal tip, with an end radius in the range of 50 nm to allow field ionization and evaporation. Using Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) in suspension as an example, analysis of the mass spectrum and three-dimensional (3D) chemical maps from APT provides a detailed image of the water-gold interface with near-atomic resolution. At the water-gold interface, the formation of an electrical double layer (EDL) rich in water (H2O) molecules has been observed, which results from the charge from the binding between the trisodium-citrate layer and the AuNP. In the bulk water region, the density of reconstructed H2O has been shown to be consistent, reflecting a highly packed density of H2O molecules after graphene encapsulation. This study is the first demonstration of direct imaging of liquid-NP interface using APT with results providing an atom-by-atom 3D dissection of the liquid-NP interface.
It is well known since 2010 that fullerene C60 is widespread through the interstellar space. Also, it is well known that graphene is a source material for synthesizing fullerene. Here, we simply assume the occurrence of graphene in space. Infrared sp
ectra of graphene molecules are calculated to compare both to astronomical observational spectra and to laboratory experimental one. Model molecules for DFT calculation are selected by one astronomical assumption, that is, single void in charge neutral graphene of C13, C24 and C54, resulting C12, C23 and C53. They have a carbon pentagon ring within a hexagon network. Different void positions are classified as different species. Single void is surrounded by 3 radical carbons, holding 6 spins. Spin state affects molecular configuration and vibrational spectrum. It was a surprise that the triplet state is stable than the singlet. Most of charge neutral and triplet spin state species show closely resembling spectra with observed one of carbon rich planetary nebulae Tc1 and Lin49. We could assign major bands at 18.9 micrometer, and sub-bands at 6.6, 7.0, 7.6, 8.1, 8.5, 9.0 and 17.4 micrometer. It is interesting that those graphene species were also assigned in the laboratory experiments on laser-induced carbon plasma, which are analogies of carbon cluster creation in space. The conclusion is that graphene molecules could potentially contribute to the infrared emission bands of carbon-rich planetary nebulae.
