Özet

The properties of a polymer like nanorod based on columnar stacked layers of a single C-6 ring is investigated using density functional theory, in a plane-wave basis set and utilizing an ultrasoft pseudopotential. In this manner, the existence possibility of an unsubstituted, small cross section columnar pi-conjugated nanorod is aimed to be inferred via the calculated physical properties and bulk energetics. Two possible geometries for such a structure is presented in conjunction with previous work. The system is modelled using an abstraction based on molecular properties of benzenoid rings and similarly coordinated bulk systems.
