We investigate dissociation of diatomic molecules and anions using density functional theory (DFT) and density-corrected density functional theory (DC-DFT). We scan the potential energy curve of CH, NH and NO neutral molecule and its anion with both DFT and DC-DFT (in form of Hartree-Fock DFT, HF-DFT) using various functionals. Using CCSD(T) results as reference, we perform the error decomposition scheme recently proposed by Kim et al. The results show while most neutrals are $functio{\acute{n}}al$ error $domi{\bar{n}}ating$ normal calculations, $CH^-$ and $NO^-$ anions are density-driven error dominating abnormal calculations. In case of $NH^-$, traditional DFT goes to a wrong dissociation limit indicating abnormality, but both HF-DFT and CCSD(T) results need further investigation due to the kinks on the curve.

In connection with two electron binding energy of each bond of saturated hydrocarbons, C-C bond fission and hydrogen abstraction from C-H bond are discussed by means of two center Huckel method. A beautiful correlation could be noticed between the observed bond dissociation energy and the calculated bond energy except for n-butane. Bond dissociation energies between C-C bond were also related to C-C bond fission. We could also find a very close relation between the relative easiness of hydrogen abstraction and the calculated binding energy of C-H bond. In other words, C-H bonds of tertiary hydrogen have been noticed as most weakely bonded and hence the tertiary hydrogen would most easily from the paraffins. In addition, the C-H binding energy is discussed applying ionic character of C-H bond which is derived from its dipole moment (0.4D)

Theoretical studies have been performed to study the binding characteristics of the alkali metal iodides, M-I (M = Li, Na, K), to poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO, I), poly(ethylene amine) (PEA, II) and poly(ethylene N-methylamine) (PEMA, III) via the B3LYP method. In this study, two types of complexes, singly-coordinated systems (SCS) and doubly-coordinated systems (DCS), were considered, and dissociation energies (${\Delta}E_D$) were calculated both with and without basis set superposition error (BSSE). Two types of counterpoise (CP) approach were investigated in this work, but the ${\Delta}E_D$ values corrected by using the function CP (fCP) correction exhibited an unusual trend in some cases due to deformation of the sub-units. This problem was solved by including geometry relaxation in the CP-corrected (GCP) interaction energy. On the other hand, the effects of the BSSE on the structures were very small when the complexes were re-optimized on the CP-corrected (RCP) potential energy surface (PES), even if the bond lengths between X and $M^+$ ($d_{{X-M}^+}$) and between $M^+$ and $I^-$ ($d_{M^+-I^-}$) were slightly lengthened. Therefore, neither the GCP nor RCP corrections made much difference to the dissociation energies.

Organic photovoltaics (OPVs) have attracted significant interest in an interdisciplinary research field for the decades as a next-generation photovoltaic device due to their unique advantages. One of requirements for OPVs having high power conversion efficiency is the favorable energy level alignment between the electrode/organic and organic/organic interfaces to manage the exciton dissociation and improve the charge transport. In this review, strategies to enhance the OPV performance by controlling the energy level alignment are discussed. The insertion of an exciton blocking layer leads to the efficient dissociation of photogenerated excitons at the donor/acceptor interface enhancing the short-circuit current density. The choice of a donor having a high ionization energy and an acceptor having a low electron affinity increases the open-circuit voltage. The insertion of an appropriate work function modifier which reduces the charge injection barrier removes the S-kink in current density-voltage characteristics of OPVs and improves the fill factor. This review would give a valuable guide to design the efficient OPV structure.

올리고당의 구조중 연결위치(linkage position)는 충돌 탄뎀 질량분석법(FAB CAD MS/MS: Fast Atom Bombardment Collision Activated Dissociation Mass Spectrometry/Mass Spectrometry)을 이용하여 알 수 있다. 연결위치-이성질체 올리고당을 아세틸화시키면 자유올리고당보다 연결위치의 구별이 쉽고 독특한 분절이온 패턴을 얻을 수 있다. 그 이유는 연결위치에 따라 각 올리고당이 충돌에너지(collision energy)를 흡수하여 glycosidic 결합 주위를 회전하는 회전운동의 자유도가 달라지기 때문이다.

Resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization with time-of-flight product imaging of the $N(^2D)$ atoms has been used to study the $N_2O$ photodissociation at 118.2 nm and the two-photon dissociation at 268.9 nm. These imaging experiments allowed the determination of the total kinetic energy distribution of the $NO(X^2{\prod})$ and $N(^2D_{5/2})$ products. The $NO(X^2{\prod})$ fragments resulting from the photodissociation processes are produced in highly vibrationally excited states. The two-photon photodissociation process yields a broad $NO(X^2{\prod})$ vibrational energy distribution, while the 118.2 nm dissociation appears to produce a vibrational distribution sharply peaked at $NO(X^2{\prod},\;{\nu}=14)$.

Prion is a group of the proteins known for its infection mechanisms of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) and other diseases. Solved structures and proven biological roles of fungal prions add tremendous potential to conducting computational simulations. Our research focuses on the binding dynamics of HET-s(218-289), one of the heterokaryon fungal prion originated from Podospora anserina, by calculating the binding free energy using umbrella sampling at 300 K. The binding free energy calculated was $-54.5kcal\;mol^{-1}$, relatively similar to the binding energy of other amyloid fibrils. The simulation result suggests the thermodynamic properties of ${\beta}$-solenoid of HET-s prion and its similarity in dissociation pathways compared to amyloids.

Limited understanding of the surface properties of $Pt_3Ni$ for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) has motivated the study of magnetic properties and electronic structures of Pt segregated $Pt_3Ni$ (111) surface during adsorption of oxygen molecule on it. The first principle method based on density functional theory (DFT) is carried out. Nonmagnetic Pt has induced magnetic moment due to strong hybridization between Ni 3d and Pt 5d. It is found that an oxygen molecule prefers bridge site with Pt rich subsurface environment for adsorption on the surface of Pt segregated $Pt_3Ni$ (111). It is seen that there is very small charge transfer from $O_2$ to Pt. The curve of energy versus magnetic moment of the oxygen explains the magnetic moments in transition states. We found the dissociation barrier of 1.07eV significantly higher than dissociation barrier 0.77eV on Pt (111) suggesting that the dissociation is more difficult on Pt segregated $Pt_3Ni$ (111) surface. The spin polarized densities of states are presented in order to understand electronic structures of Pt and $O_2$ during the adsorption in detail.

The photodissociation dynamics of CH2I2 has been studied at 304 nm by state-selective photofragment translational spectroscopy. Velocity distributions, anisotropy parameters, and relative quantum yields are obtained for the ground I(2P3/2) and spin-orbit excited state I*(2P1/2) iodine atoms, which are produced from photodissociation of CH2I2 at this wavelength. These processes are found to occur via B1 ← A1 type electronic transitions. The quantum yield of I*(2P1/2) is determined to be 0.25, indicating that the formation of ground state iodine is clearly the favored dissociation channel in the 304 nm wavelength region. From the angular distribution of dissociation products, the anisotropy parameters are determined to be β(I)=0.4 for the I(2P3/2) and β(I*)=0.55 for the I*(2P1/2) which substantially differ from the limiting value of 1.13. The positive values of anisotropy parameter, however, show that the primary processes for I and I* formation channels proceed dominantly via a transition which is parallel to I-I axis. The above results are interpreted in terms of dual path formation of iodine atoms from two different excited states, i.e., a direct and an indirect dissociation via curve crossing between these states. The translational energy distributions of recoil fragments reveal that a large fraction of the available energy goes into the internal excitation of the CH2I photofragment; < Eint > /Eavl=0.80 and 0.82 for the I and I* formation channels, respectively. The quantitative analysis for the energy partitioning of available energy into the photofragments is used to compare the experimental results with the prediction of direct impulsive model for photodissociation dynamics.
