摘要
采用密度泛函理论广义梯度(GGA)法对吸附在MgO(001)表面的Aun纳米团簇结构进行了模拟和分析。结果表明,吸附使Aun(n<5)纳米团簇平均键长增加,导致Au原子之间相互作用减弱,催化活性增强;当n≥5时,平均键长的变化基本趋于稳定,其中Au8由于其较高的对称性吸附后平均键长比其邻近团簇的平均键长短。进一步研究表明团簇的自由能和吸附能的二阶差分随原子个数的变化都表现出奇偶震荡,即在原子数为偶数时团簇与MgO表面的相互作用更紧密;而吸附对于Aun纳米团簇内电子结构的影响也很大,由于Au原子和Mg及O原子之间的电子相互作用,使Au团簇的p态轨道明显增强,而外层s态和d态轨道在费米面处的峰值明显减小,催化活性增强,这与前面平均键长的分析结果是一致的。该研究结果为Aun纳米团簇应用于雾霾消除时含氮氧化物的光催化降解提供了理论支持。
The Aun nano clusters adsorption on MgO(001) are calculated and analyzed by generalized gradient method of density functional theory. It can be found that the average bond length of the Aun(n < 5) nano clusters will be increased when Aun adsorbed on MgO(001), implied that the interaction between Aun atoms is reduced and the catalytic activity is enhanced. At the same time. the average bond length of the Aun(n ≥ 5) will change smoothly, and that of the Au8 will become shorter than that of the adjacent clusters because of its high symmetry. Furthermore, It also can be shown that the variation of the free energy and the second-order difference of adsorption-energy are odd-even oscillation along with the change of the atomic number. In additional, the adsorption on MgO(001) will make the P state orbit of Aun become enhanced, while make the outer s and d states orbit in the Fermi surface area become decreased greatly, it will cause the enhance of Aun catalytic activity. The results will provide the theoretical support to the application of Aun nano clusters to the nitrogen photocatalytic degradation.
