Energies of alkanes computed with many popular and even newer density functionals are flawed by systematic errors, which become considerable with larger molecules. The same energies, however, are well described by post-Hartree-Fock methods. Similar DFT sho ...
Using density functional calculations, we studied substoichiometric Ge oxides through a series of crystalline models representing the various oxidation states. We evaluated deviations with respect to a bond-energy description in terms of penalty energies f ...
Molecular self-assembly at metal surfaces has been recognized as an efficient strategy to create supramolecular nanoarchitectures with promising functionalities. The focus of this thesis lies on the strong electron accepting molecule 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquin ...
Model structures of substoichiometric germanium oxide generated by ab initio molecular dynamics reveal a rich variety of bonding configurations, including threefold coordinated Ge and O atoms which correspond to valence alternation pairs. A sizable fractio ...
The role of long range dispersion forces plays a significant role in the adsorption of weakly chemisorbed molecules, as demonstrated by our first-principles calculations with the van der Waals density functional (vdW-DF) applied to the model system salicyl ...
In recent works, dispersion-corrected atom-centered potentials (DCACPs) were developed as a method to account for long-range dispersion forces between molecules in density functional theory calculations within the generalized gradient approximation (GGA). ...
The Kohn-Sham formulation of density functional theory (DFT) has posed itself as one of the most popular and versatile methods for condensed phase studies owing to its reasonable accuracy and affordable computational cost. DFT, in principle, yields exact g ...
This thesis deals with the self-organization of individual building blocks, specifically organic molecules and metal atoms, into supramolecular structures on metal surfaces under ultra high vacuum conditions (UHV). Self-organization of supramolecular syste ...
Both first-principles molecular dynamics and theoretical X-ray absorption spectroscopy have been used to investigate the aqueous solvation of cations in 0.5 M MgCl(2), CaCl(2), and NaCl solutions. We focus here on the species-specific effects that Mg(2+), ...
Electrically tunable molecules are highly attractive for the construction of molecular devices, such as switches, transistors, or machines. Here, we present a novel nanomechanical element triggered by an electrical bias as external stimulus. We demonstrate ...
