Heavy-Atom Tunneling In The Planar Bond Shifting Of [16]Annulene, Philip Lampkin, Jon Shezaf
Heavy-Atom Tunneling In The Planar Bond Shifting Of [16]Annulene, Philip Lampkin, Jon Shezaf
Creative Activity and Research Day - CARD
Mid-sized annulenes are known to undergo rapid π-bond shifting. Given that heavyatom tunneling plays a role in planar bond shifting of cyclobutadiene, we computationally explored the contribution of heavy atom tunneling to the planar bond shifting in the major (CTCTCTCT) and minor (CTCTTCTT) isomers of [16]annulene. (U)M06-2X/cc-pVDZ calculations yield bond-shifting barriers of ca. 10 kcal/mol. The results also reveal extremely narrow barrier widths, suggesting a high probability of tunneling for these bond-shifting reactions. Rate constants were calculated using canonical variational transition state theory (CVT) as well as with small curvature tunneling (SCT) contributions, via direct dynamics. For the major isomer, …

Study Of The Visual Adaptation Mechanism In Marine Species With The Change Of Habitation Depth., Demid Osipov, Daniil Moshnikov
Study Of The Visual Adaptation Mechanism In Marine Species With The Change Of Habitation Depth., Demid Osipov, Daniil Moshnikov
The International Student Science Fair 2018
The goal of our work was to determine the principal mechanisms that provide the difference in visual perception of two marine species that live on different depths: T. Pacificus and O. Vulgaris. In nature, visual perception of species that live deeper is shifted towards the blue region. This is related to the fact that red, orange and yellow light is absorbed more strongly by water than the blue light. On the other hand, the visual perception spectrum of an animal is determined by the absorption spectrum of the "light sensor" located in rods and cones of its eye retina. These …
Modeling Adsorption And Diffusion Of Atomic Oxygen On The Ag(111) Surface Using Kinetic Monte Carlo Simulations, Seth Spencer Street, Sharani Roy, Sara Isbill
Modeling Adsorption And Diffusion Of Atomic Oxygen On The Ag(111) Surface Using Kinetic Monte Carlo Simulations, Seth Spencer Street, Sharani Roy, Sara Isbill
EURēCA: Exhibition of Undergraduate Research and Creative Achievement
Oxidized silver surfaces are widely used as industrial heterogeneous catalysts to oxidize small organic compounds, such as ethylene. While surface-adsorbed oxygen is known to participate in catalysis, it has been suggested that ‘subsurface’ oxygen adsorbed in the near-surface region of silver also plays important roles in surface reconstruction and reactivity. However, the formation, motion, and chemical behavior of subsurface oxygen in silver are not well understood. In the present work, a kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) simulation has been developed using the Python programming language to computationally model the diffusion kinetics of atomic oxygen (AO) at the Ag(111) surface. This simulation …

Temperature-Dependent Exciton Dynamics Of Superacid Treatment In Monolayers Of The Metal Dichalcogenide Mos2, Mingwei Zhou, Long Yuan, Jordan Snaider, Libai Huang
The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Symposium
To improve optoelectronic semiconductor materials, one of the most efficient research areas is the two-dimensional (2D) transition-metal dichalocogenides (TMDCs). It has been shown that organic nonoxidizing superacid bis(trifluoromethane)sulfonamide (TFSI) treatment of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) monolayer could uniformly enhance its photoluminescence by more than two orders of magnitude and also extend the lifetime of excitons. This could greatly improve the efficiency of the solar energy usage, but the mechanism behind it has not been fully understood. Extreme low temperatures (approximately 7K), which slow the surface exciton mobility, were applied to investigate the changes of treated MoS2 monolayer surfaces. …

Applying Machine Learning To Computational Chemistry: Can We Predict Molecular Properties Faster Without Compromising Accuracy?, Hanjing Xu, Pradeep Gurunathan, Lyudmila Slipchenko
The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Symposium
Non-covalent interactions are crucial in analyzing protein folding and structure, function of DNA and RNA, structures of molecular crystals and aggregates, and many other processes in the fields of biology and chemistry. However, it is time and resource consuming to calculate such interactions using quantum-mechanical formulations. Our group has proposed previously that the effective fragment potential (EFP) method could serve as an efficient alternative to solve this problem. However, one of the computational bottlenecks of the EFP method is obtaining parameters for each molecule/fragment in the system, before the actual EFP simulations can be carried out. Here we present a …

Raman Spectroscopy Of Oxygen Evolution Catalysts And Psii Manganese Model Compounds, Sergei Shmakov, Daniel A. Hartzler, Alireza Karbakhsh Ravari, Yulia Pushkar
The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Symposium
Photosynthesis is the basis of life on earth, and oxygen evolution catalysts are key components of this complicated, yet not fully understood process. Photosystem II, a large membrane bound pigment-protein complex, is the key system that facilitates oxygenic photosynthesis via the oxygen evolving complex (a natural oxygen evolving catalyst). It is a key component in oxygen producing catalysts, which can be used in fields such as energy production and biomimetic catalysts. The oxygen evolution cycle, or Kok cycle going within it is still not studied completely. In this project, we were studying the vibrational (and structural) state of a Manganese …

A Computational Approach To Studying The Properties Of Photosensitizers In Photodynamic Therapy, Keenan Komoto
Graduate Student Symposium
Cancer has long been a significant problem that has affected our world’s population for years and continues to this day. With the number of cases expected to increase annually there is a societal pressure to find effective treatment methods for eliminating cancer. Current forms of cancer treatment tend to cause detrimental effects to the human body and are usually quite expensive and long lasting, some costing upwards of $30,000 over an 8 week period. A more recently established form of cancer treatment known as photodynamic therapy is an effective treatment option for ridding cancers that lie on or just below …

Analyzing The Kinetics Of A Bromophenol Blue Fading Reaction In Basic Conditions For An Undergraduate Lab, Zeljka Popovic
Georgia College Student Research Events
Bromophenol blue is a common pH indicator and dye used in many different industries. Once a solution of bromophenol blue is placed in a concentrated basic solution, the color fades from a blue/violet color to clear solution with a pH of 4.6 or greater. The rate law of the reaction is analyzed through the use of a small footprint visible-near-infrared spectrometer (Vis-NIR) with a diode array detector. An absorbance wavelength of 590 nm as a function of time was collected using Ocean Optics OceanView software. The results contained in the data collection file are exported to a spreadsheet for further …

Studies Of Optical And Electronic Properties Of Nanoparticles For Solar Energy Conversion, Caitlin Kruse, Libai Huang
The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Symposium
The higher energy needs for today's technological society requires sustainable and renewable energy source, such as solar energy. This study focuses on using semiconducting quantum dots and fluorescent dyes as light absorbers for solar energy conversion devices such as solar cells. Quantum dots are small nanocrystals (usually 2-10 nm in diameter) with tunable absorbing properties. The smaller the dot, the shorter the wavelength being absorbed. Quantum dots are extremely efficient light absorbers and emitters. Fluorescent dyes have a high quantum yield. In order to examine the energy conversion, cadmium selenide (CdSe) quantum dots and Rhodamine 6G (R6G) dye were spin …

Investigating Intermolecular Interactions In Crystalline Aspirin Using Cdft, Nicholas Turner, Tonglei Li, Mingtao Zhang
The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Symposium
Drugs today are widely administered in their crystalline form, namely via tablets and capsules. The crystal structure of a drug molecule affects important drug qualities such as solubility, bioavailability, shelf life, and compaction properties. In order to form a basis for crystal structure prediction, it is necessary to first understand how intermolecular interactions cause molecules to pack in certain ways. Being able to predict and perhaps even control a drug molecule’s crystal structure will lead to the development of higher quality drugs that perform more consistently. Scientists and engineers do not fully understand the reasons for a molecule assuming a …

Investigation Of Major Intermolecular Interactions In 7,8-Dihydrobenzo(K)Phenanthridin-6(5h)-One Crystal Using Quantum Calculations And Crystallographic Visualization Programs, Zhiwei Liao, Tonglei Li, Mingtao Zhang
The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Symposium
Currently, tablets and capsules are the most common ways of delivering drugs. The active pharmaceutical ingredients and excipients used to make those tablets and capsules are in their crystalline form generally. However, a single molecule can form multiple different crystal structures because of different packing arrangements of the molecules. These different crystal structures have identical chemical composition but different properties such as solubility, density, stability, etc. This phenomenon is called polymorphism. Occurrence of polymorphism could be a disaster for both patients and pharmaceutical companies, as the drug could lose its efficacy due to changes in properties. Studying intermolecular interactions in …

Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP)
NaBH4 is a hydride with possible applications as a hydrogen storage material for future renewable energy technologies. It’s dehydrogenation properties are enhanced with the mixture of particular catalysts through ball-milling techniques during which local pressures may exceed several GPa’s. It is for this reason that understanding the behavior of pressure induced phase changes of its crystalline unit cell is an area of interest.
