Abstract
Noble metals such as gold (Au), zinc (Zn), and iron (Fe) are highly significant in both fundamental and technological contexts owing to their applications in optoelectronics, optical coatings, transparent coatings, photodetectors, light-emitting devices, photovoltaics, nanotechnology, batteries, and thermal barrier coatings. This study presents a comprehensive investigation of the optoelectronic properties of Fe(111) and Au, Zn/Fe(111) materials using density functional theory (DFT) first-principles method with a focus on both materials' spin orientations. The optoelectronic properties were obtained employing the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) and the full-potential linearized augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) approach, integrating the exchange-correlation function with the Hubbard potential U for improved accuracy. The arrangement of Fe(111) and Au, Zn/Fe(111) materials was found to lack an energy gap, indicating a metallic behavior in both the spin-up state and the spin-down state. The optical properties of Fe(111) and Au, Zn/Fe(111) materials, including their absorption coefficient, reflectivity, energy-loss function, refractive index, extinction coefficient, and optical conductivity, were thoroughly examined for both spin channels in the spectral region from 0.0 eV to 14 eV. The calculations revealed significant spin-dependent effects in the optical properties of the materials. Furthermore, this study explored the properties of the electronic bonding between several species in Fe(111) and Au, Zn/Fe(111) materials by examining the density distribution mapping of charge within the crystal symmetries.

Abstract
Machine learning (ML) is causing profound changes to chemical research through its powerful statistical and mathematical methodological capabilities. However, the nature of chemistry experiments often sets very high hurdles to collect high-quality data that are deficiency free, contradicting the need of ML to learn from big data. Even worse, the black-box nature of most ML methods requires more abundant data to ensure good transferability. Herein, we combine physics-based spectral descriptors with a symbolic regression method to establish interpretable spectra-property relationship. Using the machine-learned mathematical formulas, we have predicted the adsorption energy and charge transfer of the CO-adsorbed Cu-based MOF systems from their infrared and Raman spectra. The explicit prediction models are robust, allowing them to be transferrable to small and low-quality dataset containing partial errors. Surprisingly, they can be used to identify and clean error data, which are common data scenarios in real experiments. Such robust learning protocol will significantly enhance the applicability of machine-learned spectroscopy for chemical science.

Abstract
When a many-body wave function of a system cannot be captured by a single determinant, high-level multireference (MR) methods are required to properly explain its electronic structure. MR diagnostics to estimate the magnitude of such static correlation have been primarily developed for molecular systems and range from low in computational cost to as costly as the full MR calculation itself. We report the first application of low-cost MR diagnostics based on the fractional occupation number calculated with finite-temperature DFT to solid-state systems. To compare the behavior of the diagnostics on solids and molecules, we select metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as model materials because their reticular nature provides an intuitive way to identify molecular derivatives. On a series of closed-shell MOFs, we demonstrate that the DFT-based MR diagnostics are equally applicable to solids as to their molecular derivatives. The magnitude and spatial distribution of the MR character of a MOF are found to have a good correlation with those of its molecular derivatives, which can be calculated much more affordably in comparison to those of the full MOF. The additivity of MR character discussed here suggests the set of molecular derivatives to be a good representation of a MOF for both MR detection and ultimately for MR corrections, facilitating accurate and efficient high-throughput screening of MOFs and other porous solids.

Abstract
Splitting of water with the help of photocatalysts has gained a strong interest in the scientific community for producing clean energy, thus requiring novel semiconductor materials to achieve high-yield hydrogen production. The emergence of 2D nanoscale materials with remarkable electronic and optical properties has received much attention in this field. Owing to the recent developments in high-end computation and advanced electronic structure theories, first principles studies offer powerful tools to screen photocatalytic systems reliably and efficiently. This review is organized to highlight the essential properties of 2D photocatalysts and the recent advances in the theoretical engineering of 2D materials for the improvement in photocatalytic overall water-splitting. The advancement in the strategies including (i) single-atom catalysts, (ii) defect engineering, (iii) strain engineering, (iv) Janus structures, (v) type-II heterostructures (vi) Z-scheme heterostructures (vii) multilayer configurations (viii) edge-modification in nanoribbons and (ix) the effect of pH in overall water-splitting are summarized to improve the existing problems for a photocatalytic catalytic reaction such as overcoming large overpotential to trigger the water-splitting reactions without using cocatalysts. This review could serve as a bridge between theoretical and experimental research on next-generation 2D photocatalysts.

Abstract
We report a theoretical study of the adsorption of a set of small molecules (C2H2, CO, CO2, O2, H2O, CH3OH, C2H5OH) on the metal centers of the “copper paddle-wheel”—a key structural motif of many MOFs. A systematic comparison between DFT of different rungs, single-reference post-HF methods (MP2, SOS–MP2, MP3, DLPNO–CCSD(T)), and multi-reference approaches (CASSCF, DCD–CAS(2), NEVPT2) is performed in order to find a methodology that correctly describes the complicated electronic structure of paddle-wheel structure together with a reasonable description of non-covalent interactions. Apart from comparison with literature data (experimental values wherever possible), benchmark calculations with DLPNO–MR–CCSD were also performed. Despite tested methods show qualitative agreement in the majority of cases, we showed and discussed reasons for quantitative differences as well as more fundamental problems of specific cases.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising materials for greener carbon monoxide (CO) capture and separation processes. SDB-based (SDB = 4,4'-sulfonyldibenzoate) MOFs are particularly attractive due to their remarkable gas adsorption capacity under humid conditions. However, to the best of our knowledge, their CO adsorption abilities have yet to be investigated. In this report, CO-loaded PbSDB and CdSDB were characterized using variable-temperature (VT) 13C solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (SSNMR) spectroscopy. These MOFs readily captured CO, with the adsorbed CO exhibiting dynamics as indicated by the temperature-dependent changes in the SSNMR spectra. Spectral simulations revealed that the CO simultaneously undergoes a localized wobbling about the adsorption site and a nonlocalized hopping between adjacent adsorption sites. The wobbling and hopping angles were also found to be temperature-dependent. From the appearance of the VT spectra and the extracted motional data, the CO adsorption mechanism was concluded to be analogous to that of CO2. To gain a better understanding on the gas adsorption properties of these MOFs and their CO capture abilities, we subsequently compared the motional data to those reported for CO2 in SDB-based MOFs and CO in MOF-74, respectively. A significant contrast in adsorption strength was observed in both cases because of the different physical properties of the guests (i.e., CO vs CO2) and the MOF frameworks (i.e., SDB-based MOFs vs MOFs with open metal sites). Our results demonstrate that SSNMR spectroscopy can be employed to probe variations in binding behavior.

Abstract
Conventional molecular models fail to correctly describe interactions of adsorbates with coordinatively unsaturated sites (CUS) present in a large number of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Here, we confirm the failure of these models for a prototypical polar adsorbate, carbon monoxide, and show that simply adjusting their parameters leads to poor agreement with experimental isotherms when outside the fitting conditions. We propose a new approach that combines quantum mechanical density functional theory (DFT) with Monte Carlo simulations to rigorously account for specific interactions at the CUS. By explicitly including electrostatic interactions and employing accurate DFT functionals that describe dispersion interactions, our modeling approach becomes generally applicable to both polar and nonpolar molecules. We demonstrate that this CUS model leads to substantial improvement in carbon monoxide adsorption isotherm predictions, and correctly captures the coordination binding mechanism. This paper represents a major stepping stone in the development of a robust, transferable and generally applicable approach to describe the complex interactions between gas molecules and CUS, with great potential for use in large-scale screening studies.

Abstract
Physical adsorption of methane in purely siliceous molecular sieves prepared by a recently discovered synthetic pathway using 2D zeolites as nanoscale building blocks has been investigated by means of combined experimental and theoretical approaches. The DFT/CC-based method has been tested on ADOR zeolites of the UTL family and a few experimentally well-characterized siliceous zeolites. Excellent agreement between theoretical and experimental heats of adsorption has been found for OKO, PCR, MFI, CHA and AEI zeolites. The observed discrepancy for the UTL germanosilicate (2 kJ mol-1) has been plausibly explained using a simple model of D4R defects. The proposed methodology can be used as a reliable characterization tool for newly synthesized silica nanomaterials.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have gained much attention as next-generation porous media for various applications, especially gas separation/storage, and catalysis. New MOFs are regularly reported; however, to develop better materials in a timely manner for specific applications, the interactions between guest molecules and the internal surface of the framework must first be understood. A combined experimental and theoretical approach is presented, which proves essential for the elucidation of small-molecule interactions in a model MOF system known as M2 (dobdc) (dobdc(4-) = 2,5-dioxido-1,4-benzenedicarboxylate; M = Mg, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, or Zn), a material whose adsorption properties can be readily tuned via chemical substitution. It is additionally shown that the study of extensive families like this one can provide a platform to test the efficacy and accuracy of developing computational methodologies in slightly varying chemical environments, a task that is necessary for their evolution into viable, robust tools for screening large numbers of materials.

Abstract
Using a dispersion-corrected density functional theory (DFT-D) method, this work shows that Ni3(BTC)2 can be potentially considered as promising adsorbent for O2/N2 separation with easier deoxygenation.

Abstract
Brønsted-acid zeolites are currently being used as catalysts in a wide range of technological processes, spanning from the petrochemical industry to biomass upgrade, methanol to olefin conversion and the production of fine chemicals. For most of the involved chemical processes, acid strength is a key factor determining catalytic performance, and hence there is a need to evaluate it correctly. Based on simplicity, the magnitude of the red shift of the O-H stretching frequency, Δν(OH), when the Brønsted-acid hydroxyl group of protonic zeolites interacts with an adsorbed weak base (such as carbon monoxide or dinitrogen) is frequently used for ranking acid strength. Nevertheless, the enthalpy change, ΔH(0), involved in that hydrogen-bonding interaction should be a better indicator; and in fact Δν(OH) and ΔH(0) are often found to correlate among themselves, but, as shown herein, that is not always the case. We report on experimental determination of the interaction (at a low temperature) of carbon monoxide and dinitrogen with the protonic zeolites H-MCM-22 and H-MCM-56 (which have the MWW structure type) showing that the standard enthalpy of formation of OH···CO and OH···NN hydrogen-bonded complexes is distinctively smaller than the corresponding values reported in the literature for H-ZSM-5 and H-FER, and yet the corresponding Δν(OH) values are significantly larger for the zeolites having the MWW structure type (DFT calculations are also shown for H-MCM-22). These rather unexpected results should alert the reader to the risk of using the O-H frequency shift probed by an adsorbed weak base as a general indicator for ranking zeolite Brønsted acidity.
