Detecting mid-infrared light by molecular frequency upconversion in dual-wavelength nanoantennas
From astronomy to the surveying of greenhouse gases, a wide range of science and engineering applications rely on the detection of mid-infrared (mid-IR) photons. However, because photons from the mid-IR have less than a tenth of the energy of the…

Nanosecond heme-to-heme electron transfer rates in a multiheme cytochrome nanowire reported by a spectrally unique His/Met-ligated heme
Here, the group of Jochen Blumberger contributed the the modelling and molecular interpretation of ultrafast pump-probe spectrocopy experiments carried out by collaborators at the University of East Anglia. The team reports exceptionally high rates for heme-to-heme electron transfer, on the…

Machine learning potentials for complex aqueous systems made simple
Researchers from the University of Cambridge, University College London, Imperial College London and Charles University in Prague have developed a powerful machine learning based procedure for molecular simulations of complex systems. The results, reported in the journal PNAS, open the…
High-Throughput Computational Evaluation of Low Symmetry Pd2L4 Cages to Aid in System Design
Molecular cages have potential as enzyme-mimics and in applications such as catalysis, drug-delivery and sensing. Recently, chemists have attempted to introduce more complexity into their structures in an attempt to emulate Nature’s success with proteins and enzymes. However, it can…
