  Theoretical chemistry at Penn is particularly strong in the areas of statistical mechanics, quantum dynamics, and molecular dynamics, with emphasis on the theory and computer simulation of biophysical systems, novel materials and condensed phase processes. Above, the work of the Rappe Group: This picture (red = Pb, blue = Zr, green = Ti, black = O) illustrates why Pb(Zr{1-x},Tix)O3 (called "PZT") is the key smart material in medical ultrasound devices, naval SONAR detection and broadcast, and ferroelectric RAM memory. about theoretical chemistry |
