Computational design of metal-supported molecular switches: Transient ion formation during light- and electron-induced isomerisation of azobenzene
Computational design of metal-supported molecular switches: Transient ion formation during light- and electron-induced isomerisation of azobenzene
R. J. Maurer and K. Reuter, J. Phys. Condens Matter, DOI:10.1088/1361-648X/aaf0e1 (2018), Invited Article
"Using DFT and linear expansion Delta-Self-Consistent DFT excited-state calculations, we systematically analyse important design parameters that define successful light-induced molecular switching of azobenzene."
