It is a paradigm in chemistry that chemical reaction are mainly governed by thermodynamics. Within this assumption, reaction rates can be derived from transition state theory which requires a quasi-equilibrium…
Molecular simulations are becoming a common tool for the investigation of dynamic and thermodynamic properties of novel solvents such as ionic liquids and the more recent deep eutectic solvents. As…
Femtosecond X-ray pulse lasers are promising probes for elucidating the multi-conformational states of biomolecules because they enable snapshots of single biomolecules to be observed as coherent diffraction images. Multi-image processing…
SARS-CoV-2 uses its spike protein receptor-binding domain (RBD) to interact with the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor on host cells. Inhibitors of the RBD-ACE2 interaction are therefore promising drug candidates…
Converting carbon dioxide (CO2) into valuable products is one of the most important processes for a sustainable society. Especially, the electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) offers an effective means, but…
