    Future Applications of Artificially-Synthesized Organic Molecules Containing Transition-Metal Atoms
    (Elsevier, 2018) Mayda, Selma; Kandemir, Zafer; Bulut, Nejat
    Artificially-synthesized organic molecules which contain transition-metal atoms offer new possibilities for applications in the electronics, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries. Hence, developing an understanding of the electronic properties of this kind of organic molecules is important. With this purpose, here we study the electronic properties of metalloproteins, metalloenzymes, and Ru-based dye molecules as examples for this kind of organic molecules. In particular, we perform combined Hartree-Fock (HF) and quantum Monte Carlo (HF+QMC) calculations, as well as combined density functional theory (DFT) and QMC (DFT+QMC) calculations to study the electronic properties of these molecules. Our results show that new electronic states named as impurity bound states (IBS) form in metalloproteins, metalloenzymes, and Ru-based dye molecules. We show that the electron occupancy of IBS is critically important in determining the low-energy electronic properties of these molecules. In this respect, the IBS may play a central role in developing new applications based on artificially-synthesized organic molecules containing transition-metal atoms. © 2018 Elsevier Inc.

    Electronic Structure of Cyanocobalamin: Dft+qmc Study
    (Springer Verlag, 2017) Mayda, Selma; Kandemir, Zafer; Bulut, Nejat
    We study the electronic structure and the magnetic correlations of cyanocobalamin (C63H88CoN14O14P) by using the framework of the multi-orbital single-impurity Haldane-Anderson model of a transition metal impurity in a semiconductor host. Here, we first determine the parameters of the Anderson Hamiltonian by performing density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Then, we use the quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) technique to obtain the electronic structure and the magnetic correlation functions for this effective model. We find that new electronic states, which correspond to impurity bound states, form above the lowest unoccupied level of the host semiconductor. These new states derive from the atomic orbitals at the cobalt site and the rest of the molecule. We observe that magnetic moments develop at the Co(3dν) orbitals and over the surrounding sites. We also observe that antiferromagnetic correlations exist between the Co (3dν) orbitals and the surrounding atoms. These antiferromagnetic correlations depend on the filling of the impurity bound states.
