Outline of lecture

Computers in Chemistry: selected examples from Catalysis and Materials Chemistry

Purpose of lecture

We give an overview on various simulation methods used in chemistry using examples from recent literature. We cover cases from catalysis, bioinorganic chemistry and nanoscience to illustrate good practices and limitations. The course targets experimentalist and does not require detailed knowledge of quantum chemical methods or experience with simulations.

Plan of lecture

Brief overview of calculations methods
What is a good chemical model?
Spectroscopic properties
Spins in chemistry
Periodic systems and nanomaterials
Computational materials design

Textbook and reference

The slides and handouts of the course will be available.

Related and/or prerequisite courses

Elementary knowledge of quantum chemistry is prefered.

Evaluation

Evaluation is based on attendance and in-class participation.
