Molecular dynamics simulations are widely used to study molecules and materials and lots of effort is put into making these simulations obey the physical laws. Energy conservation law is obviously one of the most important laws that MD should respect. …
Energy-conserving molecular dynamics is not energy conserving! Read more »
Activation of methane and its conversion to added-value products is an important topic which requires chemical solutions with high yields and selectivity. In our recent collaborative study, we present the oxidation of methane to methanol using nitrogen dioxide as a …
Alkyne-embedding [11]cycloparaphenylene ([11]CPPs) was functionalized with electron-donating, -neutral, and -withdrawing aryl substituents to yield a series of nanolassos via click chemistry. We used our state-of-the-art, artificial intelligence-enhanced quantum mechanical method 1 (AIQM1) to thoroughly analyze the electronic and photophysical properties of these …

Mario Barbatti, his group and collaborators published an update on Newton-X – a popular open-source platform for surface hopping and nuclear ensembles. An update include extension of the Newton-X platform to supervised (with our MLatom platform) and unsupervised learning (with ulamdyn). The paper is also open access and appeared in the Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation.
We used our MLatom package to develop a machine learning approach for designing materials based on mixed metal halides to facilitate ammonia separation and storage.
Diazapentacene derivatives were synthesized and investigated for their potential application in organic field-effect transistors, with one derivative showing a rare n-type behavior. The blog post written by Wudi Yang and Shuang Zhang and edited by Pavlo Dral. Organic field-effect transistors …
Theory was instrumental in rationalizing complex photophysical phenomena experimentally observed for a series of spiro-bridged heterotriangulenes in solution and their aggregates.
New alternative to “magic blue” — a standard oxidant in organic chemistry — has been prepared and its properties were rationalized computationally.
