Metal surface chemistry is a fundamental field that underpins advancements in catalysis, corrosion resistance, sensor technology and materials design. Researchers employ experimental techniques ...
Condensed matter modelling encompasses a spectrum of methodologies aimed at deciphering the intimate properties of solids and liquids by combining rigorous quantum mechanical theory with computational ...
Due to its high electron mobilities at ambient temperature and peculiar electronic behaviors like the quantum hall effect, which imitates massless transportation and results in high superconductivity, ...
A rotating cylinder with its side cut away to expose the core, showing patches of purple, blue, green, yellow, and orange that are dense in the middle and more diffuse toward the edges. This rotating ...
Join us online in September 2020 for this virtual addition to our Faraday Discussion series. For over 100 years and 300 meetings, Faraday Discussions have been the forefront of physical chemistry.
The paper explores in detail the intricate relationship between the results of the quantum-chemical calculations and the approximations they rely upon. When chemists want (or need) to include some ...
INTRODUCTION: Density functional theory (DFT) is a widely used method for calculating the electronic properties of materials. The method is based on the idea of approximating the many-electron wave ...
Scientific inquiry is a hit and miss proposition, subject to constant checking and rechecking. Recently, a new class of materials was discovered called topological insulators—nonmetallic materials ...
