Characterization of an Atom-Precise Bimetallic Nanocluster

21 August 2013

For the first time a bimetallic cluster with a noble metal and a first-row transition metal has been synthesized. The nanocluster was characterized by a joint experimental (ESI-MS) and theoretical (DFT) study. DFT calculations identified...

BAND calculations explain break-through molecular charge transport experiment

21 August 2013

Charge transport through single-molecule junctions is dominated by image charges. This is demonstrated and explained by a combined experimental and theoretical effort from Delft (Quantum Nanoscience and Chemical Engineering departments) and the Leiden Institute of...
