Our knowledge of chemistry is limited by our narrow terrestrial perspective. Unexpected and unique types of chemistry take place in the universe and, aside from spectroscopy, computational quantum chemistry is essential to explain and understand their secrets.

Chiral phosphoric acids are bifunctional catalysts that have the ability to activate electrophiles and nucleophiles through hydrogen bonding, and they have been successful in catalysing highly enantioselective additions of a wide range of nucleophiles to imines.

Abstract:
Metal dication-ligand sandwich complexes have attracted intense attention recently for their widely use in catalysis, biochemistry and material science. The experimental techniques developed by our group have allowed forming, confining, cooling and investigating a wide range of metal dication complexes in the gas phase. In this thesis, the ultraviolet photofragmentation studies of Pb(II), Cu(II) and Ca(II) sandwich complexes with aromatic ligands are performed using a hybrid quadrupole ion trap instrument, followed by DFT/TDDFT calculations. The experimental results indicate that the complexes

Abstract:
This work presents a comprehensive study on single crystalline LaPt2Si2, in which superconductivity and a charge density wave (CDW) coexist. The usage of density functional theory (DFT) modeling and Inelastic Neutron Scattering has been the primary form of investigation, in order to determine all the characteristic features of the sample taken under consideration. From the results one can observe that the Fermi surface nesting is the primary contributor for the CDW wavevector ~qCDW = (1/3, 0, 0). In addition, the phonon density of states present two typical energy levels, with soft modes in th

Abstract:
This master's thesis studies the electronic properties changes of graphene caused by substrate SiO2, adsorbed molecules of water and atoms of gallium. There are tested different geometrical configurations of these systems and consequently calculated band structures to derive the changes of the electronic properties: the doping effect and band gap opening of graphene layer.

Abstract:
The goal of solid state physics and chemistry is to gain deeper understanding of the basic principles of condensed matter. This ongoing process is achieved by the combination of experimental methods and theoretical models. One theoretical approach are the so-called first-principles calculations, which are based on the concept of density functional theory (DFT). In order to test the reliability of a band structure calculation, its results have to be compared with experiments. Since the electron density, the main constituent of DFT codes, cannot be directly determined experimentally with suffici

Abstract:
The dynamic process of how fast a spintronic device can be switched from one state to another is characterized by the Gilbert damping parameter. It has been found that the Gilbert damping along with other intrinsic properties in permalloy, can be tuned by different dopants and doping concentration. Therefore, a study of intrinsic magnetic properties with emphasis on the dependence of the Gilbert damping parameter from first principles calculations is investigated. It is aimed at to give an insight of the microscopic understanding originated from electronic structure and to provide a guideline

Abstract:
Les propriétés électroniques et thermoélectriques de matériaux basés sur Mg2Si ont été étudiées par calculs DFT et semi-classiques (théorie de Boltzmann). Les effets d’abaissement de dimensionalité et de contraintes ont été étudiés. Les calculs ont été effectués sur les films monocristallins orientés 001, 110 et 111 et sur les films polycristallins. Seul le film monocristallin orienté 110 a montré des propriétés thermoélectriques intéressantes. Trois types de contraintes ont été investiguées: uniaxiale, biaxiale et isotrope.

The world energy and product consumption keep increasing steadily over the years as the world population keeps growing and more countries become industrialized. As the world reserves deplete it becomes a necessity to find an alternative way to meet the population’s demand. Biomass conversion seems to be the future of a clean and sustainable world.
