© 2019 IEEE.MAX phases, which are widely studied experimentally and theoretically, have general formula of M(n1)AXn, where M is transition metals, A is A group element and X is C and N. In this study, the structural, mechanical and electronic properties have been researched for hypothetical MAX phase TiMSiB, where M is Cr and Mn by applying ab initio calculations. Initially, structural optimizations have been completed and the outcomes crosschecked with the studies of Ti2SiB in literatures [1]. After optimization process have been achieved, the mechanical stability has been proved. Moreover, Young, Bulk, Shear modules and Poisson ratio for the compounds have been estimated by using elastic constants. Also, to understand the anisotropic behavior of the materials, directional dependent two and three-dimensional mechanical properties have been plotted. Finally, electronic band structures and corresponding density of state (DOS) have been plotted.

A density functional theory study of oxidation of benzene to phenol by N2O on Fe- and Co-ZSM-5 clusters
Fellah, Mehmet Ferdi; Önal, Işık (2009-06-01)
Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were carried out in the study of oxidation of benzene to phenol by N2O on relaxed [(SiH3)(4)AlO4M] (where M=Fe, Co) cluster models representing Fe- and Co-ZSM-5 surfaces. The catalytic cycle steps are completed for both Fe-ZSM-5 and Co-ZSM-5 clusters. The general trend of the results that were obtained in terms of activation barriers for the Fe-ZSM-5 cluster is in agreement with the experimental and theoretical literature. It was observed that the phenol formatio...

C-H bond activation of methane on a bridge site M-O-M- of ZSM-5 (M = Au, Ag, Fe and Cu) clusters has been performed by means of Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations with the utilization of [Si6Al2O9H14(M-O-M](2+) (where M = Au, Ag, Fe and Cu) cluster models representing ZSM-5 surfaces. According to the activation barrier data based on TS calculations. The following activity order of clusters with respect to their activation barriers could be classified: Ag approximate to Au > Cu Fe for Metal-O-Metal...
A Density Functional Study of 1, 1, 5-Tris(4-dimethylaminophenyl)-3-methyl-divinylene
Fellah, Mehmet Ferdi; Önal, Işık (2010-04-01)
The optimized molecular structural parameters and UV-vis, IR and Raman spectra of a dye molecule with an open formula of 1,1,5-Tris(4-dimethylaminophenyl)-3-methyl-divinylene are determined by means of density functional theory (DFT) calculations using B3LYP/6-31G** formalism. Neutral and cationically charged molecules are used for DFT computations. C-C, C-C, and N-C bond distances of dimethylaminophenyl groups of the dye molecule are in reasonable agreement with the experimental and theoretical C-C, C=C, a...
A DFT study on CO oxidation on Pd-4 and Rh-4 clusters and adsorbed Pd and Rh atoms on CeO2 and Ce(0.75)Z(r0.25)O(2) supports for TWC applications
Gerceker, Duygu; Önal, Işık (2013-11-15)
CO oxidation reaction mechanisms and energetics are examined on adsorbed Pd-4 and Rh-4 clusters and adsorbed Pd and Rh atoms on CeO2 and Ce0.75Zr0.25 O-2 support structures using DFT methods. Activation barriers and TS structures are computed with CI-NEB method. On cluster adsorbed systems, Zr affects CO binding position and O-2 adsorption mode. Energetically, formation of two CO2 molecules without barrier and surface regeneration is possible only on Pd-4-CeO2 surface. With metal atom substituted surfaces, ...
A Density Functional Theory Study of NO Reduction by C3H8 Aided Selective Catalytic Reduction Method
Tezsevin, Ilker; Onay, Deniz; FELLAH, MEHMET FERDİ; Önal, Işık (2015-03-01)
In this theoretical work sequential adsorption of H-2 and O-2 on a Ag (7) (+) cluster surface is first studied and Ag (7) (+) H2O2 cluster co-complex thereby obtained is used for the NO reduction process. This cationic charged silver nano cluster simulates small Ag crystals experimentally detected on gamma-Al2O3 support. For NO reduction, three different mechanisms and intermediate steps of these mechanisms reported in experimental literature are examined. Energy profiles, activation barriers and transition...
