| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this project, we have devised a range of computational quantum chemistry methodologies for the calculation of properties of generic molecular species as well as materials systems. These include highly accurate wavefunction procedures as well as computationally efficient density functional theory (DFT) methods. Specifically, two composite protocols, "WG" and "WGh", and two DFTs, "HSEB" and "reHISS", have been formulated. They represent a complete set of methods suitable for all quantum chemistry investigations.
We have used these methods to tackle chemical problems in biology (e.g., oxidation of DNAs and proteins) and materials systems (e.g., electrical and photochemical properties of metal-organic frameworks).
In total, this project has directly and indirectly lead to about 20 internationally peer-reviewed publications. The results have also been presented in multiple international conferences.
