1. Classical and Car-Parrinello Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Polyvalent Metal Ions in Water
Sammanfattning : The aqueous solvation of metal ions is one of the long-standing and complex problems in chemistry, with implications for and applications in a broad range of biochemical and electrochemical systems, where water is the all-pervasive medium.This thesis describes computer simulations of Al3+(aq), Fe2+(aq), Fe3+(aq) and Cu2+(aq).

2. Quantum Mechanical Calculations of Thermoelectrical Polymers and Organic Molecules
Sammanfattning : The subject of the present licentiate thesis is density functional theorybased electronic structure calculations of organic thermoelectric materials and novel organic molecules. We used the Car-Parrinello molecular dynamics method in order to investigate the electronic structure of “green energy” and “greenchemistry” compounds. LÄS MER
3. Ultrafast Photo-induced Reaction Dynamics of Small Molecules
Sammanfattning : The main focus of this thesis is the investigation of the dissociation dynamics of aryl halides using femtosecond pump-probe spectroscopy. In the monohalogenated aryl halides, iodo-, bromo- and chlorobenzene, the rate of dissociation following excitation at 266 nm in the gas phase increased with increasing mass of the halogen atom.

4. Numerical Methods for Molecular Dynamics with Nearly Crossing Potential Surfaces
Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of four papers that concern error estimates for the Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics, and adaptive algorithms for the Car-Parrinello and Ehrenfest molecular dynamics.In Paper I, we study error estimates for the Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics with nearly crossing potential surfaces.

5. Electronic and optical properties of conducting polymers from quantum mechanical computations
Sammanfattning : Conductive polymers are also known as "organic metals" due to their semiconducting properties. They are found in a wide range of applications in the field of organic electronics. However, the growing number of experimental works is not widely supported with theoretical calculations. LÄS MER
