Water contains tremendous energy in a variety of forms, but very little of this energy has yet
been harnessed. Nanostructured materials can generate electricity on interaction with water …

The exploration of the utilization of sustainable, green energy represents one way in which it
is possible to ameliorate the growing threat of the global environmental issues and the crisis …

Kohn-Sham density functional theory (DFT) is a standard tool in most branches of chemistry,
but accuracies for many molecules are limited to 2-3 kcal⋅ mol− 1 with presently-available …

The transport properties and the swelling behaviour of NAFION and different sulfonated
polyetherketones are explained in terms of distinct differences on the microstructures and in …

The electrolyte is the heart of any fuel cell. Ideally, this component effectively separates the
anode and cathode gases and/or liquids and mediates the electrochemical reaction …

Explanations for the anomalously high mobility of protons in liquid water began with
Grotthuss's idea, of 'structural diffusion'nearly two centuries ago. Subsequent explanations …

Nuclear quantum effects influence the structure and dynamics of hydrogen-bonded systems,
such as water, which impacts their observed properties with widely varying magnitudes. This …

Proton-exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) are considered to be a promising
technology for efficient power generation in the 21st century. Currently, high temperature …

Atomistic simulations of chemical, biological and materials systems have become
increasingly precise and predictive owing to the development of accurate and efficient …

Water is of fundamental importance for human life and plays an important role in many
biological and chemical systems. Although water is the most abundant compound on earth …
