Nuclear lamina strain states revealed by intermolecular force biosensor [PDF]
Nuclear lamins have been considered an important structural element of the nucleus. The nuclear lamina is thought both to shield DNA from excessive mechanical forces and to transmit mechanical forces onto the DNA.

Electrostatic force promoted intermolecular stacking of polymer donors toward 19.4% efficiency binary organic solar cells [PDF]
Conjugated polymers are generally featured with low structural order due to their aromatic and irregular structural units, which limits their light absorption and charge mobility in organic solar cells.

Intermolecular Contrast in Atomic Force Microscopy Images without Intermolecular Bonds [PDF]
Intermolecular features in atomic force microscopy (AFM) images of organic molecules have been ascribed to intermolecular bonds. A recent theoretical study [P. Hapala et al., Phys. Rev. B 90, 085421 (2014)] showed that these features can also be explained by the flexibility of molecule terminated tips.

Intermolecular Force Field Parameters Optimization for Computer Simulations of CH4 in ZIF-8 [PDF]
The differential evolution (DE) algorithm is applied for obtaining the optimized intermolecular interaction parameters between CH4 and 2-methylimidazolate ([C4N2H5]−) using quantum binding energies of CH4-[C4N2H5]− complexes.

The Interplay of Inter- and Intramolecular Hydrogen Bonding in Ether Alcohols Related to n-Octanol [PDF]
n-Octanol and related ether alcohols are studied via molecular dynamics (MD) simulations using the two classical all-atom force fields OPLS-AA and CHARMM. The ether alcohols studied possess one ether functionality separated by varying n carbon atoms from

Convergence of Intermolecular Force Series
The commonly used perturbation method of estimating the Van der Waals forces between atoms is shown to lead, when carried to the extreme, to divergent results. The method employs an expansion of the classical electrostatic interaction between the atoms in a series of inverse powers of the internuclear distance.
