Atomistic simulation of electron transfer reactions in condensed phases has become a major task in our group. Such reactions essentially involve the transfer of an electron from a donor to an acceptor in a homogeneous or heterogeneous medium over length scales ranging from Angstroms to several nanometers. Electron transfer reactions form the basis of many energy-transforming processes in Nature (e.g. photosynthesis, respiration) and industry (e.g. solar cells and fuel cells). We are particularly interested to develop and devise simulation methods and protocols for the prediction of electron transfer rates and mechanism from first principles.<\/p>\n
