The main interactions characterizing the crystals of organic molecules are weak interactions such as hydrogen bonds, van der Waals forces, hydrophobic interactions, etc.1 Considering the weak nature of the forces involved, ...

In this PhD thesis attention has been focused on the theoretical design of organic small molecules for next generation electronics. The task of this thesis has concerned with the theoretical analysis of the operational ...

The goal of the present study is the production of new-generation coatings suitable for hard tissue implants, intended to decrease the healing time, limit infections and rejections and improve patients' life quality. Materials ...

Search for low cost electronic materials has led towards the synthesis and the employment of organic semiconductors (OSCs), a class of materials that combine the electronic advantages of semiconducting materials with the ...

In this project, the attention has been focused on the laser ablation process and on laser induced plasmas spectroscopic study for two different technological applications. First of all, the analytical LIBS (Lase Induced ...

In the process of understanding the properties and behaviour of a compound, and designing improved materials, probing the atomic-level structure is a decisive step. Single crystal X-ray diffraction, a widespread, non-destructive ...

The PhD thesis written by Francesco F. Summa on Molecular Properties via Induced Current Densities is a careful report of a highly qualified and innovative research. Sixteen peer-reviewed publications on renowned journals ...
