Synopsis

As the world struggles with global climate change, rising oil costs, and increasing energy demands, it has become critical to search for alternative energy sources, more efficient chemical processes, and more environmentally benign materials. Computational methods-including molecular modeling and scientific informatics-have already made significant contributions to this area. Improved solar cells, more stable PEM fuel cells, and longer-lived batteries are just some of the outcomes.
