词条 | HOMO/LUMO |
释义 |
In chemistry, HOMO and LUMO are types of molecular orbitals. The acronyms stand for highest occupied molecular orbital and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital, respectively. HOMO–LUMO gapThe energy difference between the HOMO and LUMO is termed the HOMO–LUMO gap. HOMO and LUMO are sometimes called frontier orbitals in frontier molecular orbital theory. The difference in energy between these two frontier orbitals can be used to predict the strength and stability of transition metal complexes, as well as the colors they produce in solution.[1] SemiconductorsThe HOMO level is to organic semiconductors roughly what the valence band maximum is to inorganic semiconductors and quantum dots. The same analogy can be made between the LUMO level and the conduction band minimum.[2] Organometallic chemistryIn organometallic chemistry, the size of the LUMO lobe can help predict where addition to pi ligands will occur. SOMOA SOMO is a singly occupied molecular orbital such as half-filled HOMO of a radical.[3] This abbreviation may also be extended to semi occupied molecular orbital. See also
