Broadly, interactions of small hydrocarbons, nitriles etc. improved sampling methods for crystal structure prediction, and modelling to predict stabilities in growth conditions.

We've got a really nice group of people here at Curtin - and I think this is great opportunity to join us!

Given you’re doing NaCl and crystals already then maybe something with solvent? Ion pairing of NaCl in water? Always fun to show how such a “simple” problem is not at all simple… that or surface energies, kink site stuff or finite particle size effects maybe aren’t so intuitive for many

It would be possible I think! Just a matter of putting in the right potential functions. It never ceases to amaze me how complex behaviour can get with simple models like this!

Always open to suggestions to improve things 😁, lots of it is a work in progress and interactive tools I wanted for teaching.

That’s actually half the reason I’m doing it! Tired of the massive barriers for installing, setting up qm programs etc. Learning QM is hard enough for UG without all the software complications

Just to emphasise this, the entire calculation is running inside your browser - there's no server back-end running it. It's local.
