    Notes: Density Functional Theory is used to study the influence of the size of copper clusters modeling the Cu(100) surface, on the electronic properties: ionization potential, electron affinity, electronic chemical potential, and chemical hardness. The model clusters are chosen to have a bilayer structure and range in size from 9 to 20 copper atoms. The chemical hardness being identified as the relaxation energy of the frontier levels when an electron is removed or added to the system, a simple expression is proposed to estimate its value from the eigenenergies of the frontier levels in neutral and partially ionized systems. A detailed comparison of the geometric and electronic structures is made between the model surface copper clusters, real copper clusters, and the actual metal surface; it is seen that the model surface clusters provide an easy extrapolation to the properties of the metal surface.

    Notes: The Self-Consistent Reaction Field theory (extended to include an ellipsoidal cavity for the solute and a multipolar expansion of the field) is used to investigate the influence of medium polarity on the second-order nonlinear optical response of the prototypical octupolar compound 1,3,5-triamino-2,4,6-trinitrobenzene, TATB. Despite the absence of any dipole moment in TATB, the effect of medium polarity is found to be significant; for instance, the βzzz tensor component of TATB is calculated to be twice as large in dichloromethane (electric permittivity ε = 9.1) as in the gas phase (ε = 1). This enhancement factor is similar to, though somewhat smaller than the one calculated for the dipolar counterpart of TATB, i.e. p-nitroaniline.
