The GW method is a state-of-the-art approach for the calculation of the electronic structure of molecules and can be used to calculate ionization potentials (IP) and electron affinities (EA) with high accuracy. The presence of heavy...
The SCM team proudly announce our new AMS2023 release, with many new features and improvements! With the new M3GNet universal graph neural network potential, you can explore the potential energy surface (PES) and run molecular...
SCM’s expert Erik van Lenthe demonstrates how to calculate X-ray absorption spectra with ADF. Erik walks you through the simulation of core excitations with ADF, including spin-orbit coupling, TDDFT and the fast transition potential method....
In this video tip of the week, Ole demonstrates how to calculate core Ionization Potentials as probed in X-ray photoemission spectroscopy. The video is based on the new step-by-step tutorial Core Ionization Potentials (XPS) of...
Managing temperatures is essential for the lifetime and performance of many materials and their devices. Two main applications include electronic devices and spacecraft. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are crystalline porous polymers, with tunable properties such...
Researchers from the University of Amsterdam investigated the effects of twisting an electron donor-acceptor molecule. The conformational dependence of the matrix element for spin–orbit coupling (SOCME) and of the electronic coupling for charge separation are...
Going to WATOC 2020 in Vancouver, 3-7 July 2022? Come grab a stroopwafel at booth 116, and discuss collaboration options, research applications, or computational chemistry in general with our CEO Stan van Gisbergen and software...
Using graphene (Gr) and glassy carbon (GC) as building blocks, recently a hybrid material with superior electrical and electrochemical properties was introduced. 2D monolayer graphene is considered as the gold-standard for electrical conductivity with its...
The BCL method is a theoretical framework to understand and predict dyes and their efficiency in solar cells. The method is comprehensively presented in a recent paper. It is based on a system of equations...
