Molecular dynamics in computational materials sciences: From the study of nanostructure formation to the design of fluorescent dyes

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

On overview is given over the use of approximate density functional theory as basis for performing direct molecular dynamics simulations on ground and excited states. In the case of nanostructure formation, we discuss the relationship between fullerene, nanotube, and graphene formation. In the case of fluorescent molecules, we elucidate the importance of excited state dynamics for fluorescent properties.
