Four atom #catalyst allow synergy of different metals while maintaining selectivity for #CO2conversion and other reactions. Cu2Zn2 gives ethanol, and Cu4 gives ethylene. Novel #substrate flexibility #descriptor predicts performance. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja… @USC_Chemistry J. Am. Chem. Soc.

#Plasmons show strong optical response & extend far outside metal, compared to regular #excitations. Interactions of #plasmons with #materials and #molecules give exciting applications. Check our review Trends in Chemistry authors.elsevier.com/a/1gm6h9CpcYWb… USC Chemistry #nonadiabatic #tddft

#QuantumDot surfaces are #nonstoichiometric. #Surface composition and #passivation with #ligands have strong influence on electronic properties and #electronphonon relaxation. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art… J. Mater. Chem. family USC Chemistry #nonadiabatic #tddft

Laser excitation most easily induces demagnetization of #magnetic structures. However, interlayer charge transfer in #CrI3 / #CrCl3 #antiferromagnets can cause transition to a new stable magnetic phase. pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10… Nano Letters USC Chemistry #nonadiabatic #tddft

In collaboration, we have extended #nonadiabatic #MolecularDynamics and real-time #tddft to study periodic systems with multiple #kpoints for both #electrons and #phonons USC Chemistry Nature Computational Science nature.com/articles/s4358… News&Views nature.com/articles/s4358… Nature News & Views


#Quantum #nuclear effects influence structure and carrier dynamics of hybrid organic-inorganic metal halide #perovskites through interaction of hydrogens of the organic cation with the inorganic lattice. USC Chemistry J. Am. Chem. Soc. #nonadiabatic #tddft

Halide vacancies are common in metal halide #perovskites. Benign in equilibrium they create deep traps by #fluctuation, #charging, #excitation, #migration.

Metallic #plasmonic particles interact very differently with #2D (#graphene) and #3D (SiO2) substrates, important for #deposition protocols and design of #nanostructured #optoelectronic #devices. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac… USC Chemistry @JPC Lett


#Decoherence slows quantum transitions in #nonadiabatic #MolecularDynamics, as in #quantumZeno effect. Often the Zeno limit is not reached and transitions occur in the anti-Zeno regime. Can #SurfaceHopping reproduce both regimes? pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac… USC Chemistry @JPC Letters
