Electronic Structure Lab

General interests of the group are understanding the electronic structure of materials using density functional theory. The group works on software development, theory, and applications. Current interests include charge transfer excitations in donor acceptor complexes (organic photovolatics), linear and non linear polarizabilities of molecules.

Molecular Viewer Test

This is a test of how to introduce the Jmol molecular viewer into the site.
You just need to create new content of type "Molecular Viewer" and attach an .xyz file

Running jobs at Hopper

In order to run jobs on NERSC's Hopper cluster you need to have job script to submit, (you can download a sample from here).
