Work led by @1stbz from his time at @scan 's group @UCLChemistry 💪
JOSS paper now published here!

Band unfolding can be a pain😩
But powerful insights to electronic structure in disordered/alloyed/doped materials, surfaces, interfaces...
➡️ easyunfold; streamlined calc setup/parsing, wide analysis functionality (orbital/site-projected, eff mass...)

End of an era, as @Kavanagh_Sean_ has passed his PhD Viva @UCLChemistry. Thanks to @MMMGroupYork and Richard Catlow for examining. Pictured here is Seán with proud co-supervisor @lonepair, Keith, and myself. He is off to join @bkoz37 and the @Materials_Intel group in Harvard.

First preprint of 2024, excellent work from visiting CSC student Wenzhen, @Kavanagh_Sean_ and @KieranBSpooner on understanding the importance of orbital engineering for new high performance thermoelectrics. tinyurl.com/3xkrh5ca @UoBChemistry @uob_bear @ARCHER2_HPC

Now online.
Our work about multi-anion antiperovskite as TEs. 🤠

One of the weird things about working in the #Python community is that our core technologies are mostly not written in Python. If someone wants to contribute code, now they have two problems. - Michael Droettboom at #SciPy2023

@Robert_Palgrave @JarvistFrost @ZwijCompChem @DrYGChung @lonepair @sineatrix what is the formation energy of Cu on the Pb site? How feasible is the doping? Can you expect a large concentration? Also with the large distortion, what does this mean for the XRD pattern? They would be quite different to what is reported in the experimental paper?

Super #compchem line-up on the first day of #MC16, with a keynote by @MolecularXtal and several contributed talks across the field. (Shout out also to @ZakMachachi 😀)

@Andrew_S_Rosen Well spotted. There is a live tool to try/debug: mermaid.live. Also GitHub Markdown render supports it natively, so the diagram can be rendered on the webpages.

I just learned about the diagramming tool Mermaid (mermaid.js.org) and am in love. The markdown-based approach is so simple! 😍

Just accepted in @JMaterChem A, a defect chemistry study of the spinel LMNO cathode for Li-ion batteries: tinyurl.com/ye9b3kcx, from PhD student Jiayi Cen, @1stbz @Kavanagh_Sean_ and Alex Squires. @FI_Futurecat @UCLChemistry @ucl_arc @tyc_london

Check this out! We have performed a systematic screening of new nitride perovskites using chemical and structural ideas with rigorous verifications of thermal dynamic and dynamic stabilities.

Just out on @arxiv, @BastienGrosso led a systematic #compchem screening for new nitride perovksites, finding some interesting synthetic targets with some cool potential applications: arxiv.org/abs/2304.05450. @danwdavies @1stbz @lonepair @UCLChemistry @UCLFutureMat @ucl_arc

Excited to have Dr @EnricoBerardo from Ab Initio Software speaking to the TYC forum tomorrow at UCL! @tyc_london
Starts at 11 am and includes 🥪🥤
Due to tube strikes it'll be a hybrid event with zoom for those who want to follow online! If you need the link, get in touch.

PLEASE RETWEET: We have a 12 month PDRF available, using #compchem to study new Na-ion battery materials as part of the @NaNexgen project. Come and join the fun in @UCLChemistry in lovely London! tinyurl.com/58a3np25
