Abstract

Adsorption of 2,4,6-tribromoaniline (BA), 2,4,6-trifluoroaniline (FA) and 2,4,6-trichloroaniline (CA) onto the surface of coronene/fullerene/fullerene-like nanocages was investigated by theoretical calculations. Due to the adsorption of BA/FA/CA, there are significant changes in chemical descriptors and nonlinear optical properties. Energy gap values of all nanoclusters are lowered, giving an increase in conductivity of complexes except for fullerene. All complex’s ultraviolet visible wavenumber is blue-shifted and especially for fullerene complex, the values are very high. The enhancement of Raman intensities shows that it is possible to design a nanocage sensor for detecting these compounds by surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). Communicated by Ramaswamy H.
