The adsorption of gas molecules (CO, NH$_3$, CO$_2$ ) on Polyaniline Emeraldine salt has been performed to study gas sensing. Density functional theory (DFT) and time dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations have been carried out to compute the response mechanism of polyaniline emeraldine salt (PANI ES) oligoanalinines (with two to six rings) to gas molecules. The optimized geometry and electronic structure corresponding to molecule and complexes are computed with the pseudo-potential and full-potential methods. The absorption spectra corresponding to polyaniline emeraldine salt molecule and its complexes are calculated using TD-DFT. We found it out that the electronic and optical features corresponding to complexes show more sensitive to the NH$_3$ adsorption. The optical absorption spectrum analysis was used for all ( nPANI ES-X ) and isolated nPANI ES. Then, the related spectrum indicates that the $lambda_{max}$ is shifted red or blue, is affected by the kind of complex.

We present state-selective measurements on the NH$_2^{+}$ + H$^{+}$ and NH$^{+}$ + H$^{+}$ + H dissociation channels following single-photon double ionization at 61.5 eV of neutral NH$_{3}$, where the two photoelectrons and two cations are measured i n coincidence using 3-D momentum imaging. Three dication electronic states are identified to contribute to the NH$_2^{+}$ + H$^{+}$ dissociation channel, where the excitation in one of the three states undergoes intersystem crossing prior to dissociation, producing a cold NH$_2^+$ fragment. In contrast, the other two states directly dissociate, producing a ro-vibrationally excited NH$_2^+$ fragment with roughly 1 eV of internal energy. The NH$^{+}$ + H$^{+}$ + H channel is fed by direct dissociation from three intermediate dication states, one of which is shared with the NH$_2^{+}$ + H$^{+}$ channel. We find evidence of autoionization contributing to each of the double ionization channels. The distributions of the relative emission angle between the two photoelectrons, as well as the relative angle between the recoil axis of the molecular breakup and the polarization vector of the ionizing field, are also presented to provide insight on both the photoionization and photodissociation mechanisms for the different dication states.
The spherical-harmonics expansion is a mathematically rigorous procedure and a powerful tool for the representation of potential energy surfaces of interacting molecular systems, determining their spectroscopic and dynamical properties, specifically in van der Waals clusters, with applications also to classical and quantum molecular dynamics simulations. The technique consists in the construction (by ab initio or semiempirical methods) of the expanded potential interaction up to terms that provide the generation of a number of leading configurations sufficient to account for faithful geometrical representations. This paper reports the full general description of the method of the spherical-harmonics expansion as applied to diatomic-molecule-diatomic-molecule systems of increasing complexity: the presentation of the mathematical background is given for providing both the application to the prototypical cases considered previously (O2-O2, N2-N2, and N2-O2 systems) and the generalization to: (i) the CO-CO system, where a characteristic feature is the lower symmetry order with respect to the cases studied before, requiring a larger number of expansion terms necessary to adequately represent the potential energy surface; and (ii) the CO-HF system, which exhibits the lowest order of symmetry among this class of aggregates and therefore the highest number of leading configurations.
Two isotopic chemical reactions, $mathrm{Ne}^*$ + NH$_3$, and $mathrm{Ne}^*$ + ND$_3$, have been studied at low collision energies by means of a merged beams technique. Partial cross sections have been recorded for the two reactive channels, namely $ mathrm{Ne}^*$ + NH$_3$ $rightarrow$ Ne + NH$_3^+$ + $e^-$, and $mathrm{Ne}^*$ + NH$_3$ $rightarrow$ Ne + NH$_2^+$ + H + $e^-$, by detecting the NH$_3^+$ and NH$_2^+$ product ions, respectively. The cross sections for both reactions were found to increase with decreasing collision energy, $E_{coll}$, in the range 8 $mu$eV$<E_{coll}<$ 20 meV. The measured rate constant exhibits a curvature in a log(k)-log($E_{coll}$) plot from which it is concluded that the Langevin capture model does not properly describe the $mathrm{Ne}^*$ + NH$_3$ reaction in the entire range of collision energies covered here. Calculations based on multichannel quantum defect theory were performed to reproduce and interpret the experimental results. Good agreement was obtained by including long range van der Waals interactions combined with a 6-12 Lennard-Jones potential. The branching ratio between the two reactive channels, $Gamma = frac{[NH_2^+]}{[NH_2^+]+[NH_3^+]}$, is relatively constant, $Gammaapprox 0.3$, in the entire collision energy range studied here. Possible reasons for this observation are discussed and rationalised in terms of relative time scales of the reactant approach and the molecular rotation. Isotopic differences between the $mathrm{Ne}^*$ + NH$_3$ and $mathrm{Ne}^*$ + ND$_3$ reactions are small, as suggested by nearly equal branching ratios and cross sections for the two reactions.
Co$^{2+}$ ions in an octahedral crystal field, stabilise a j$_{eff}$ = 1/2 ground state with an orbital degree of freedom and have been recently put forward for realising Kitaev interactions, a prediction we have tested by investigating spin dynamics in two cobalt honeycomb lattice compounds, Na$_2$Co$_2$TeO$_6$ and Na$_3$Co$_2$SbO$_6$, using inelastic neutron scattering. We used linear spin wave theory to show that the magnetic spectra can be reproduced with a spin Hamiltonian including a dominant Kitaev nearest-neighbour interaction, weaker Heisenberg interactions up to the third neighbour and bond-dependent off-diagonal exchange interactions. Beyond the Kitaev interaction that alone would induce a quantum spin liquid state, the presence of these additional couplings is responsible for the zigzag-type long-range magnetic ordering observed at low temperature in both compounds. These results provide evidence for the realization of Kitaev-type coupling in cobalt-based materials, despite hosting a weaker spin-orbit coupling than their 4d and 5d counterparts.
We examine the quenching reaction Rb (doublet S) + NH (singlet Delta) goes to Rb (doublet P one-half) + NH (ground triplet Sigma minus). This reaction may be utilized to produce ground state NH molecules for studies of ultracold physics or for other purposes, and is interesting in that it involves initial and final states that are nearly degenerate. This near degeneracy is expected to lead to a large reaction rate. We examine this system using ab initio quantum chemistry calculations and scattering calculations, which include spin-orbit effects, and find that the reaction rate is large and, in fact, approaches the quantum mechanical unitarity limit. We discuss the prospects for an experimental examination of this system.
