| Description | Nanomaterials have become increasingly important both in basic research and in applications. Some properties may be understood only at the level of the quantum mechanical study of these materials. The purpose of this Special Issue is to advance our fundamental understanding of the structure and technologically important properties of nanomaterials with the help of computational quantum solid-state physics and chemistry. There is no doubt that quantum mechanical approaches are indispensable in comprehensive studies of nanomaterials and will be increasingly crucial in the future. Of course, this field is too extensive and too diverse to be described in a single volume. Nevertheless, this Special Issue provides at least a partial snapshot of the state of the art of computational quantum mechanical studies of nanomaterials and covers some recent advances and problems. |
