127 I NMR calculations in binary metal iodides by PBE-GGA, YS-PBE0 and mBJ exchange correlation potentials.

We have calculated Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy for 127 I (quadrupolar nuclei I=5/2) in binary metal iodides XI (X=Li, Na, K, Rb and Cs) by using PBE- GGA, YS- PBE0 and mBJ exchange correlation potentials. The results show that the nature of bonds between Iodine and metal atoms are ionic. The main contribution in NMR spectroscopy is related to the induced current inside the atomic sphere and the remainder of the unit cell volume contributes only a few ppm. Obtained NMR shifts are compared with the NMR shielding data and the NMR shielding for metal-p band varies across the series about 221ppm. Density of states results indicate that the largest contribution in the shielding comes from the I-core electrons (1s and 4d). The NMR shielding graphs show that there are negative linear correlation with slope -1.18, -1.16 and -1.01 by PBE- GGA, YS- PBE0 and mBJ, respectively. The computed results by mBJ are in good agreement with the experimental values.
