Machine learning for non-additive intermolecular potentials: quantum chemistry to first-principles predictions (2022)
Journal Article

Prediction of thermophysical properties from molecular principles requires accurate potential energy surfaces (PES). We present a widely-applicable method to produce first-principles PES from quantum chemistry calculations. Our approach accurately in...

Palladium nanoparticles in catalytic carbon nanoreactors: the effect of confinement on Suzuki-Miyaura reactions (2015)
Journal Article

We explore the construction and performance of a range of catalytic nanoreactors based on palladium nanoparticles encapsulated in hollow graphitised nanofibres. The optimum catalytic material, with small palladium nanoparticles located almost exclusi...

Evaluating the effects of carbon nanoreactor diameter and internal structure on the pathways of the catalytic hydrosilylation reaction (2014)
Journal Article

Three different types of carbon nanoreactors, double-walled nanotubes (DWNT), multi-walled nanotubes (MWNT) and graphitised carbon nanofibers (GNF) have been appraised for the first time as containers for the reactions of phenylacetylene hydrosilylat...
