This thesis is concerned with the theoretical study of the adsorption of molecules and thin films to single-crystal metal surfaces. First-principles electronic calculations are performed in the framework of density functional theory in the local density ap ...
We have constructed maximally localized Wannier functions for prototype structures of solid molecular hydrogen under pressure, starting from local-density approximation and tight-binding Bloch wave functions. Each occupied Wannier function can be associate ...
We implemented a rotationally-invariant Hubbard U extension to density-functional theory in the Car-Parrinello molecular dynamics framework. with the goal of bringing the accuracy of the DFT + U approach to finite-temperature simulations, especially for li ...
A review discusses the basic concepts of the Car-Parrinello method, some of the recent methodol. extensions, focusing on aspects with potential interest for applications in medicinal chem., and the advantages and limitations of new modeling tools. ...
The behavior of metals at high pressure is of great importance to the fields of shock physics, geophysics, astrophysics, and nuclear materials. We study here bulk crystalline aluminum from first principles at pressures up to 2500 GPa - soon within reach of ...
The charge density of urea is studied using very high precision single-crystal synchrotron-radiation diffraction data collected at the Swiss-Norwegian Beam Lines at ESRF. An unprecedented resolution of 1.44 Å-1 in sin[theta][/][lambda] is obtained at 123 K ...
Transition-metal centers are the active sites for a broad variety of biological and inorganic chemical reactions. Notwithstanding this central importance, density-functional theory calculations based on generalized-gradient approximations often fail to des ...
Organometallic ruthenium(II)-arene (RA) antitumour compounds of the general type [Ru(II)(η6-arene)(X)2(pta)], RA-pta, and [Ru(II)(η6-arene)X(en)], RA-en, (X=leaving group; pta=1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane, en=ethylenediamine) have been investigated com ...
Using a density functional approach, we study structural and electronic properties of the 4H(0001)-SiC/SiO2 interface. Through the sequential use of classical and ab initio simulation methods, we generate an abrupt model structure which describes the trans ...
The density functional theory (DFT) is a recognised method for the calculation of electronic properties of materials. As such it can also be used for the calculation of energy loss near edge structures. Some care has to be taken since the DFT is intended f ...
