Learn how to use computational chemistry to compute thermodynamic properties like enthalpy, entropy, and Gibbs free energy

Since the discovery of quantum mechanics more than a hundred years ago, it has been known that electrons in molecules can be coupled to the motion of the atoms that make up the molecules. Often referred ...

When an ordinary electrical conductor—such as a metal wire—is connected to a battery, the electrons in the conductor are accelerated by the electric field created by the battery. While moving, electrons ...

A central aim of materials discovery is an accurate and numerically reliable denoscription of thermodynamic properties, such as the enthalpies of formation and decomposition. The r2SCAN revision of the strongly constrained and appropriately normed (SCAN) meta…

The first and the best-known metallocene is 'ferrocene', which contains a single iron atom. Sandwich complexes are now standard topics in inorganic chemistry textbooks, and the bonding and electronic structure of metallocenes are covered in undergraduate…

Strongly interacting systems play an important role in quantum physics and quantum chemistry. Stochastic methods such as Monte Carlo simulations are a proven method for investigating such systems. However, ...

In this video I show how to start a CASSCF calculation on a cobalt(II) porphyrin from a previous DFT calculation and find and rotate the metal orbitals into the active space. Sometimes it takes more than one step but it can be achieved!
