Abstract
⺠Cl2 Adsorption on Zn12O12 nano-cage has been studied using DFT. ⺠Cl2 is strongly adsorbed on the cluster via chemisorption or dissociation. ⺠Gibbs free energy changes are in the range of â0.36 to â0.92 eV at 298 K and 1 atm. ⺠The processes decrease HOMO/LUMO gap of the cluster and increase the work function. ⺠The Zn12O12 is transformed to a p-type semiconductor upon the Cl2 dissociation.
