Introduction
Our group
focuses on
computer modeling in material sciences. Using quantum chemistry calculation
methods, molecular mechanics force fields, molecular dynamics and Monte
Carlo simulation techniques, we predict physical and chemical properties of
advanced materials
in multiple
length and time scales.
In the
list of properties we are interested, the concentrated areas are 1)
adsorption, diffusion and separation of small gas molecules in porous
materials such as zeolites and metal organic frameworks (MOFs), 2)
thermodynamic properties of complex fluids such as surfactant mixtures and ionic liquids, and 3)
chemical reactions in condense phases.
Most
of our works are based on force field technologies. We are developing new
transferable, extensible, accurate and module (TEAM) force field,
investigating effective ways to handle polarization effects in
complex fluids, and exploring approaches to model chemical reactions in condense
phases.
