Hannes' manuscript about our methodology to study ion diffusion in crystalline solids has just been published. The interaction of the ions with the framework can in principle be calculated at any level of theory. #compchem #compchemsky doi.org/10.1021/acs....

Computationally Efficient DFT-Based Sampling of Ion Diffusion in Crystalline Solids
We present a method for large-scale DFT-based screening of ion diffusion in crystalline solids. This is accomplished by extending the Ionic TuTraSt method to sample the potential energy surface by usi...

Last chance on to visit the current arts exhibition at Treehouse NDSM (Amsterdam North) on touch, featuring the works of 14 artists, including my own! Sunday 8.12. is the last opening day. Between 13-18h I will be there and offer private tours. Hope to see you there!
