We report the interaction between the silicene nanosheet (Si-NS) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released from the pear fruit (Pyrus communis) in ripened and over-ripened stages using density functional theory (DFT) technique. The geometric stability of Si-NS is studied from the phonon band structure. Further, the electronic property of Si-NS is studied from the energy band gap structure, and the energy gap is found to be 0.46 eV, which exhibits semiconductor property. The outcomes infer that the adsorption of volatiles released from the pear fruit on silicene nanosheet is in the following order hexyl acetate $rightarrow$ butyl acetate $rightarrow$ butyl butyrate in the ripened stage whereas in the over-ripened stage the adsorption sequence is noticed to be acetic acid $rightarrow$ ethyl acetate $rightarrow$ 1-butanol. The adsorption property of pear fruit volatiles on silicene nanosheet is documented with the adsorption energy, average energy gap changes, and Bader charge transfer. Moreover, the adsorption of VOCs on silicene nanosheet is also explored using the energy band structure, electron density along with the adsorption sites and density of states (DOS) spectrum. Besides, the findings reveal that the silicene nanosheet can be used to discriminate the quality of pear fruit.

Using first-principles calculation, geometrical stability together with electronic properties of graphdiyne nanosheet (Gdn-NS) is investigated. The structural stability of Gdn-NS is established with the support of phonon band structure and cohesive e
nergy. The main objective of the present study is to check the odor quality of Mangifera indica L. (mangoes) fruits during the various ripening stage with the influence of Gdn-NS material. In addition, the adsorption of various volatiles, namely ethyl butanoate, myrcene, (E,Z,Z)-1,3,4,8-undecatetraene and $gamma$-octalactone aromas on Gdn-NS is explored with the significant parameters including Bader charge transfer, energy gap, average energy gap changes and adsorption energy. The sensitivity of volatiles emitting from various ripening stages of mango on Gdn-NS were explored with the influence of density of states spectrum. The outcomes of the proposed work help us to check the ripening stage and odor quality of Mangifera indica L. by Gdn-NS material using density functional theory.
Sodium, magnesium and aluminum adatoms, which, respectively, possess one, two and three valence electrons in terms of 3s, $3s^2$, and ($3s^2$, 3p) orbitals, are very suitable for helping us understand the adsorption-induced diverse phenomena. In this
study, the revealing properties of metal (Na/Mg/Al)-adsorbed graphene systems are investigated by mean of the first-principles method. The single- and double-side chemisorption cases, the various adatom concentrations, the hollow/top/valley/bridge sites, and the buckled structures are taken into account. The hollow and valley adsorptions, which, respectively, correspond to the Na/Mg and Al cases, create the extremely non-uniform environments within the Moire superlattices. This lead to diverse orbital hybridizations in Na/Mg/Al-Si bonds, as indicated from the Na/Mg/Al-dominated bands, the spatial charge density distributions and the orbital-projected density of states (DOS). Among three kinds of metal-adatom adsorptions, the Al-adsorption configurations present the strongest chemical modifications. The ferromagnetic configurations are shown to only survive in the specific Mg- and Al-adsorptions, but not the Na-cases. The theoretical predictions could be validated by experimental measurements and the up-to-date potential applications are included. Furthermore, the important similarities and differences with the graphene-related systems are also discussed.
We investigate the adsorption of cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPc) molecules on a thin layer of cobalt oxide grown on Ir(100). To that end we compare the results of low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) with those of ab-initio density functi
onal theory (DFT) calculations and reveal the adsorption geometry. We find that the CoPc molecules lie flat on the surface and that their central cobalt atom forms a chemical bond to a substrate oxygen ion. However, this bond contributes only modestly to the adsorption energy, while van-der-Waals forces dominate the potential landscape and determine to a large extend the geometry as well as the distortion of substrate and molecule. Furthermore they lead to attractive molecule-molecule interactions at higher molecular coverages. The DFT calculations predict energetic positions of the molecular orbitals which are compared to scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) measurements.
The adsorption characteristics of alkali, alkaline earth and transition metal adatoms on silicene, a graphene-like monolayer structure of silicon, are analyzed by means of first-principles calculations. In contrast to graphene, interaction between th
e metal atoms and the silicene surface is quite strong due to its highly reactive buckled hexagonal structure. In addition to structural properties, we also calculate the electronic band dispersion, net magnetic moment, charge transfer, workfunction and dipole moment of the metal adsorbed silicene sheets. Alkali metals, Li, Na and K, adsorb to hollow site without any lattice distortion. As a consequence of the significant charge transfer from alkalis to silicene metalization of silicene takes place. Trends directly related to atomic size, adsorption height, workfunction and dipole moment of the silicene/alkali adatom system are also revealed. We found that the adsorption of alkaline earth metals on silicene are entirely different from their adsorption on graphene. The adsorption of Be, Mg and Ca turns silicene into a narrow gap semiconductor. Adsorption characteristics of eight transition metals Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Mo and W are also investigated. As a result of their partially occupied d orbital, transition metals show diverse structural, electronic and magnetic properties. Upon the adsorption of transition metals, depending on the adatom type and atomic radius, the system can exhibit metal, half-metal and semiconducting behavior. For all metal adsorbates the direction of the charge transfer is from adsorbate to silicene, because of its high surface reactivity. Our results indicate that the reactive crystal structure of silicene provides a rich playground for functionalization at nanoscale.
The electronic structure modifications of WSe2 upon NO2-adsorption at room and low temperatures were studied by means of photoelectron spectroscopy. We found only moderate changes in the electronic structure, which are manifested as an upward shift o
f the WSe2-related bands to the smaller binding energies. The observed effects are modelled within the density functional theory approach, where a weak adsorption energy of gas molecules on the surface of WSe2 was deduced. The obtained experimental data are explained as a valence bands polarisation effect, which causes their energy shift depending on the adsorption geometry and the formed dipole moment.
