Computation of the Cohesive Energies of NaCl, SiO2 and Al Using Density Functional Theory

Aungwa Francis, S. G. Abdu, Ali Haruna & Eli Danladi · Physical Science International Journal · 2016

In this paper, the cohesive energies of Sodium Chloride (NaCl), Silicon dioxide (SiO2) and Alum inum (Al) based on computer code FHI-aims were calculated using Density Functional Theory. The code has several input parameters in which some of the variables were optimized. The cohe...

Enhancement in Photovoltaic Parameters of a Dye Sensitized Solar Cell by Surface Plasmon Resonance of Metallic Silver Nanoparticles

Eli Danladi, J. A. Owolabi, G. O. Olowomofe, M. Y. Onimisi & Aungwa Francis · Chemical Science International Journal · 2016

The influence of silver nanoparticles in dye sensitized solar cell (DSSC) through successive ion layer adsorption and reaction was demonstrated. The results show that addition of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) to titanium dioxide (TiO2) photo anode significantly improved the perfor...
