Approximating constant potential DFT with canonical DFT and electrostatic corrections
The complexity of electrochemical interfaces has led to the development of several approximate density functional theory (DFT)-based schemes to study reaction thermodynamics and kinetics as a function of electrode potential. While fixed electrode potential conditions can be simulated with grand canonical ensemble DFT (GCE-DFT), various electrostatic ...

Phototauntomerism of o-nitrobenzyl compounds: o-quinonoid aci-nitro species studied by matrix isolation and DFT calculations [PDF]
Photolyses of 2-nitrobenzyl methyl ether and 2-nitrotoluene with 254 nm light have been investigated in Ar and N2 matrices at 12 K, and have been found to give o-quinonoid aci-nitro species as the primary photoproducts, along with other products.

Electronic Properties of Triangle-Shaped Graphene Nanoflakes from TAO-DFT [PDF]
Reliable prediction of the properties of nanosystems with radical nature has been tremendously challenging for common computational approaches. Aiming to overcome this, we employ thermally-assisted-occupation density functional theory (TAO-DFT) to ...

In vitro antioxidant activity of nicotinic acid hydrazides: experimental and theoretical study [PDF]
The formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the human body can lead to cell damage. Despite the body’s natural defences, including the enzyme superoxide dismutase, novel antioxidant small molecules are needed.
