Funded Activity Summary

Accurate quantum modeling of the van der Waals interaction and its application to molecular physisorption onto surfaces. Developing zero emission clean fuel technology for transportation and developing sensitive diagnostic markers for medical diagnosis will clearly benefit Australia. In both cases large technological challenges need to be overcome. This investigation will provide theoretical insight and understanding into the molecular processes which underpin these highly desirable technologies and aid scientists and engineers in their development. A further, more general, outcome will be an accurate and predictive methodology for investigating nanotechnology problems in any material where molecular physisorption is an important process.
