Lignin is a complex polymer deposited in the cell wall of specialised plant cells, where it provides essential cellular functions. Plants coordinate timing, location, abundance and composition of lignin deposition in response to endogenous and exogen...

N-doping enabled defect-engineering of MoS2 for enhanced and selective adsorption of CO2: A DFT approach. Applied Surface Science, 542, Article 148556. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apsusc.2020.148556

A density functional theory study was conducted to analyze CO2 adsorption on defective and non-defective MoS2 surfaces with or without nitrogen doping. The MoS2_1VS and MoS2_1VMo_3NS were found exhibiting outstanding adsorption activity and stability...

Rational Design of Triplet Sensitizers for the Transfer of Excited State Photochemistry from UV to Visible (2020)
Journal Article
Elliott, L. D., Kayal, S., George, M. W., & Booker-Milburn, K. (2020). Rational Design of Triplet Sensitizers for the Transfer of Excited State Photochemistry from UV to Visible. Journal of the American Chemical Society, 142(35), 14947-14956. https://doi.org/10.1021/jacs.0c05069

Time Dependent Density Functional Theory has been used to assist the design and synthesis of a series thioxanthone triplet sensitizers. Calculated energies of the triplet excited state (ET) informed both the type and position of auxochromes placed on...
