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.
The revealing properties of transition metal (T)-doped graphene systems are investigated with the use of the first-principles method. The detailed calculations cover the bond length, position and height of adatoms, binding energy, atom-dominated band
We present a systematic investigation of molecule-metal interactions for transition-metal phthalocyanines (TMPc, with TM = Fe, Co, Ni, Cu) adsorbed on Ag(100). Scanning tunneling spectroscopy and density functional theory provide insight into the cha
Silicene is a promising 2D Dirac material as a building block for van der Waals heterostructures (vdWHs). Here we investigate the electronic properties of hexagonal boron nitride/silicene (BN/Si) vdWHs using first-principles calculations. We calculat
It has been demonstrated in previous experimental and computational work that doping CeO2 with transition metals is an effective way of tuning its properties. However, each previous study on CeO2 doping has been limited to a single or a few dopants.
We discuss the structural and electronic properties of tetragonal CuO grown on SrTiO3(100) by means of hybrid density functional theory. Our analysis explains the anomalously large Cu-O vertical distance observed in the experiments (~2.7 A) in terms
