We study the electronic structures and dielectric functions of the simple hydrides LiH, NaH, MgH2 and AlH3, and the complex hydrides Li3AlH6, Na3AlH6, LiAlH4, NaAlH4 and Mg(AlH4)2, using first principles density functional theory and GW…

Hydrogen bonds are of paramount importance in the chemistry of clays, mediating the interaction between the clay surface and water, and for some materials between separate layers. It is well-established that the accuracy of a computational…

Nuclear quantum effects play critical roles in a variety of molecular processes, especially in systems that contain hydrogen and other light nuclei, such as water. For water at ambient conditions, nuclear quantum effects are often…

Using density functional theory (DFT), we investigated the structural, electronic and optical properties of functionalized and doped MXenes such as M$_1$M$_2$CO$_2$ (M$_1$ = Zr,Hf; M$_2$ = Hf,Ti,Sc). This study aimed to find a suitable…

Mesoscale water-hydrophobic interfaces are of fundamental importance in multiple disciplines, but their molecular properties have remained elusive for decades due to experimental complications and alternate theoretical explanations.…

We model, simulate, and analyze the intramolecular modes of liquid H2O and D2O to elucidate how energy excitation, relaxation, and vibrational dephasing interplay through anharmonic mode-mode coupling. Our analysis employs two-dimensional…

Electrically actuated continuous motion of a water droplet over PDMS-coated single active electrode is analyzed from detailed modeling and experiments. In an experiment, continuous motion of the droplet is achieved when it is located over…

Accurately modeling the electronic structure of water across scales, from individual molecules to bulk liquid, remains a grand challenge. Traditional computational methods face a critical trade-off between computational cost and efficiency.…

Koopmans-compliant (KC) functionals have been shown to provide accurate spectral properties through a generalized condition of piece-wise linearity of the total energy as a function of the fractional addition/removal of an electron to/from…
