Carotenoid molecules have important photo-chemical properties and may serve as molecular wires in a molecular electronic circuit. We have theoretically studied the intrinsic conducting properties of sulfur-terminated carotene between gold contacts using local orbital density functional theory. The d

Polypyrrole films containing perchlorate were electrochemically synthesized and the bending and recovery motion of the films obtained has been investigated. It was found that the thickness of the film and ambient relative humidity (RH) were crucial to the motion of film: An increase of the film thic
A theoretical model is set up to calculate the birefringence of nonlinear optical crystals with the use of the ab initio molecular orbital method. The birefringence of a NaNO2 crystal is calculated as an example. The theoretical value is 0.2 8, which agrees well with the experimental result. This mo
