THEORETICAL STUDY OF THE INTERACTION OF TRANSITION METALS WITH SILICA

2015
The interesting applications of ultrathin silica films on transition metalsdrove us to analyze the interactions between them. We selected only sixteen transition metalsto observe a pattern and started at a molecular level to understand the principal interactions involved between them. A conformational search and a subsequent optimization of the structures, together with frequency calculations at the MP2/LANL2DZ level of theory for the metals and MP2/6-31G* for the rest of the atoms. The results show that the interactions are favorable with the transition metalswe selected.
