Investigating supercooled water with laser- and X-ray spectroscopy

Water exhibits a variety of anomalies, some of which are particularly pronounced in the supercooled region. Its specific properties and possible structural and dynamical origins have been extensively studied, leading to the still inconclusive theory that water may exist in two structural motifs at low temperatures.

Embedded Cluster Models and Solvation for the Simulation of Electrocatalysis

Heterogeneous electrocatalytic processes are notoriously difficult to simulate due to i) the complex structure of the catalyst and the electric double layer, ii) the applied bias potential that drives the reaction and iii) the variety of length and time scales on which relevant transformations happen. Accurate atomistic simulations must therefore be able to explore the configurational space of the catalyst surface – which requires fast electronic-structure methods – and enable the calculation of accurate free energies and reaction kinetics – which requires accurate electronic-structure methods.

Controlling and Observing Coherent Phonons in Thin van der Waals Materials

Ultrashort laser pulses can induce coherent phonons, where all atoms in the crystal oscillate in phase. Using ultrafast electron diffraction, we can directly image this joint atomic motion in the time domain. [more]
