    Notes: We have studied the effect of the electrostatic potential on the current across a one-dimensional tight-binding molecular wire by solving self-consistently the Poisson and Schrödinger equations. The results indicate that electrostatic effects on the current are very important in the nonlinear regime. They manifest themselves through a strong variation of the voltage drop in the interfacial region compared to the linear ramp expected in the absence of charge in the wire and also in the nature of the current–voltage characteristics. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We have studied the current vs voltage curves (I–V characteristics) of a mesoscopic device consisting of two electrodes and a molecular wire. The wire Hamiltonian includes both electronic tunneling and Coulomb repulsion within a Hubbard model that is treated at the Hartree–Fock level. The inclusion of electron repulsion is an extension of our previous work that only considered the case of noninteracting electrons. We have found several important features in the calculated characteristics of the wire. These include (1) a staircaselike structure that strongly resembles that associated with Coulomb blockade in heterostructures and quantum dots, but that in the case of the wire is associated with the discrete nature of the molecular resonances; (2) regions of negative differential resistance associated with increased localization of the molecular resonances. Our theoretical model includes a consistent treatment of the conduction in the linear and nonlinear regimes which remains valid even when the device is operated close to resonance. These results can be particularly relevant for a comparison with recent experiments on molecular wires. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Abstract A novel application of photothermal spectroscopy to the study of surfactant-water systems near the critical micellar concentration is reported. The thermal lens signal was induced by a slightly soluble dye and was measured with a dual-beam thermal lens spectrometer. For the two surfactants considered: nonyl phenol and Triton X-100, sharp variations of the thermal lens signal were observed at the critical micellar concentration (CMC), namely an increase for nonyl phenol and a decrease for triton X-100. These effects are arguably related to micelle formation. Our work serves as an initial assessment of the potential of the technique for the study of disperse systems of a higher complexity or dark systems where conventional techniques are impossible to apply.

    Notes: The 1/N expansion is used to generate semiclassical effective potentials for two-electron ions. These potentials can be considered an improvement over the conventional ones computed by Lin and Fano for the full two-electron coulomb potential insofar as they incorporate some of the quantum mechanical effects. No falling into the nucleus is allowed. Furthermore, the minima of these effective potentials are in surprising agreement with those computed by Fano, Macek, and Lin. This would indicate that the collective variable R, associated with N = 6, leads to a much smaller expansion parameter N, making the adiabatic separation more justified. The role and significance of these broken symmetry solutions with geometric localization are discussed as well as generalizations. The procedure is semiclassical in the sense that the kinetic energy becomes negligible by having a large effective mass.

    Notes: Starting from the Hohenberg-Kohn functional we show that when the energy density is given as a function of ρ and ∇ρ, i.e., ξ = ξ(ρ, ∇ρ), the condition ∇ρ · n = 0 (which was found by Bader et al. to define virial fragments), appears as a natural boundary condition for the variation of this functional. We also show that when the energy density includes second order derivatives (∇2ρ) this condition is necessary but not sufficient to guarantee the vanishing of the variation. The implications of these results are discussed in the context of a density functional theory for virial fragments.

    Notes: Local-scaling transformations are employed in order to formulate a desity functional theory where both electrons and nuclei are treated quantum mechanically. Because of the properties of these transformations, the ensuing version of density functional theory is N- and v- representable. In particular, we study the effect of these transformations on both densities and generating wave functions, and as a result, a functional for the energy expressed in terms of the electronic and nuclear densities is constructed. Plausible physical approximations for simplifying this electronic-nuclear functional are considered, and upon variation of the fuctional with respect to the electronic and nuclear densities, a system of coupled Euler-Lagrange equations is obtained.
