Crystallization of the Lewis-Wahnstr\"{o}m ortho-terphenyl model
Crystallization is observed during long molecular dynamics simulations of bent trimers, a molecular model proposed by Lewis and Wahnstr\"{o}m for ortho-terphenyl.

Magnetic molecules created by hydrogenation of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons
Present routes to produce magnetic organic-based materials adopt a common strategy: the use of magnetic species (atoms, polyradicals, etc.) as building blocks.

Molecular transport calculations with Wannier functions
We present a scheme for calculating coherent electron transport in atomic-scale contacts. The method combines a formally exact Green's function formalism with a mean-field description of the electronic structure based on the Kohn-Sham scheme of density ...

Equilibrium structures of anisometric, quadrupolar particles confined to a monolayer
We investigate the structural properties of a two-dimensional system of ellipsoidal particles carrying a linear quadrupole moment in their center. These particles represent a simple model for a variety of uncharged, non-polar conjugated organic molecules.

Organic crystalline polymers: structural properties and way to synthesis under high pressure
We consider different structures, which can be obtained by polymerization of aromatic organic molecules under high pressures. These 2D and 3D covalently bonded organic polymers and their functionalization can pave the way to production of energy storage ...

Evidence of environmental strains on charge injection in silole based organic light emitting diodes
Using d. functional theory (DFT) computations, the authors demonstrated a substantial skeletal relaxation when the structure of 2,5-bis-[4-anthracene-9-yl-phenyl]-1,1-dimethyl-3,4-diphenyl-silole (BAS) is optimized in the gas-phase comparing with the mol.

We recently introduced a method based on density functional theory (DFT) and non-equilibrium Green's function techniques (NEGF) for calculating the addition energies of single molecule nano-junctions in the Coulomb blockade (CB) regime.

The Motion of the Benzene Molecules in the Host Lattices of M(NH3)2M’(CN)4·2C6H6 Clathrates
In our previous report1 we discussed host-guest interactions in a series of Hofmann-type clathrates of the general formula: M(NH3)2M’(CN)4-2C6H6, where M is Ni, Fe, Co, Zn, Mn and Cd and M’ is Ni. It was found that the splitting of the band due to CH out-of-plane vibration in benzene, at liquid nitrogen temperature, (at around 985 cm-1), increases as ...

Diels−Alder Topochemistry via Charge-Transfer Crystals: Novel (Thermal) Single-Crystal-to-Single-Crystal Transformations [PDF]
The solid-state [4+2] cycloaddition of anthracene to bis(N-ethylimino)-1,4-dithiin occurs via a unique single-phase topochemical reaction in the intermolecular (1:1) charge-transfer crystal.
