Using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), we experimentally and theoretically investigate isolated platinum phthalocyanine (PtPc) molecules adsorbed on an atomically thin NaCl(100) film vapor deposited on Au(111). We obtain good agreement between theory a ...
Symmetry considerations are at the core of the major frameworks used to provide an effective mathematical representation of atomic configurations that is then used in machine-learning models to predict the properties associated with each structure. In most ...
The Minnesota family of exchange-correlation (xc) functionals are among the most popular, accurate, and abundantly used functionals available to date. However, their use in plane-wave based first-principles MD has been limited by their sparse availability. ...
We determine and compare structural, dynamical, and electronic properties of liquid water at near ambient conditions through density-functional molecular dynamics simulations, when using either plane-wave or atomic-orbital basis sets. In both frameworks, t ...
We derive a Bohmian trajectory-based quantum dynamics approach for the calculation of adiabatic and nonadiabatic quantum effects in ab initio on-the-fly molecular dynamics simulations. The method is designed for calculations in the full, unconstrained, pha ...
Accurate modeling of non-covalent interactions involving sulfur today is ubiquitous, particularly with regards to the role played by sulfur-containing heterocycles in the field of organic electronics. The density functional tight binding (DFTB) method offe ...
With the increasing cognition of the importance of organic molecules, they are widely applied in printing, biological and pharmacological fields, because of their special capabilities of harvesting solar light, scavenging free radicals, and chelating metal ...
The early stages of the Coulomb explosion of a doubly ionized water molecule immersed in liquid water are investigated with time-dependent density functional theory molecular dynamics (TD-DFT MD) simulations. Our aim is to verify that the double ionization ...
In this work we apply in a systematic way our multi-determinantal model to calculate the fine structure of the whole atomic multiplet manifold. The key feature of this approach is the explicit treatment of near-degeneracy correlation using ad hoc configura ...
The water‐exchange mechanism of [UO2(OH2)5]2+ has been reinvestigated by using ab initio molecular orbital (MO) methods. The geometries and the vibrational frequencies were computed with CAS‐SCF(12/11)‐SCRF and CAS‐SCF(12/11)‐PCM methods, which take into a ...
