It has been a pleasure Twitter. I made many scientific connections, heard new #chemtwitter perspectives, shared my mundane stream of consciousness. It's not just the company itself (#TwitterLayoffs), but I'll take this opportunity to disconnect 👋

Q. What happens when you replace CH₃NH₃⁺ by CH₃CH₂NH₃⁺ in a halide perovskite? A. Plenty! Mantas Šimeṅas knows how to lead a multi-technique team (feat. @KasperTolborg). 🙌 @ChemMater pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…

Updating old slides on materials data. The @NoMaDCoE interface has greatly improved since my last screenshot @PepeMarquez9!

The power of simplicity! Great science with my favourite ReO₃ structure type

I present many hard years of effort between myself, Sir Woof, the groups of @Piero_Canepa @ZhaoGroupNUS and others. The pitch: Aluminum formate (ALF) adsorbs CO2 really well at elevated temperatures, ignores N2, and is made reeeeeal cheap. Enjoy! science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…

Aluminum formate, Al(HCOO)3: An earth-abundant, scalable, and highly selective material for CO2...

Al(HCOO)3 shows excellent CO2 adsorption and CO2/N2 selectivity, enabling CO2 removal from dried CO2-rich gas streams above 300 K.

👻Next for our spooky covers is a paper by @Kavanagh_Sean_ @Robert_Palgrave @scanlond81 @lonepair @SamStranks @DominikJKubicki @KrishanuSays and co-authors. A novel mixed valency ion doped vacancy-ordered triple perovskite, Sn:Cs3Bi2Br9, is discussed. 🔗rsc.li/3FvXflr

How important are 𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘢𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 defects in PV materials? 🤔 Now out incl peer discussion from @Faraday_D Emerging PV 2022 From my time @MPIEisen🇩🇪 w/Christoph Freysoldt & usual suspects @scanlond81 @lonepair If defects are your thing, check it out! doi.org/10.1039/D2FD00043A

Chiral molecules can generate strongly twisted light and highly spin-polarised currents. We found a simple way to control these properties in thin films, paving the way for next-generation devices. New paper in @NatureChemistry: nature.com/articles/s41557-0… 🌀 – at London, England
a graphical abstract describing our paper, including diagrams of the molecules and strategy using in this work. by tuning molecular packing we can control optical properties.

Hey London-based Materials Informatics folks; we are stoked to be hosting the mighty @taylordsparks for a seminar @DERI_QMUL on Friday 11th 12:30 - 16:00. Limited spaces, snap them up fast! eventbrite.co.uk/e/data-driv…

Data Driven Materials Design - with Taylor Sparks

A selection of talks from researchers working on using machine learning and high-throughput computation to design new materials.

After a long journey of drafting, feedback, and assessment, the words "Your proposal has reached the stage of Grant Agreement preparation" carry a lot of weight...

I am indebted to group members who helped shape ideas (incl. @matthias_golomb and @michaelriver), colleagues who helped critique the text (incl. @jlischner597 and @Petit_Group), the panel members & (10!) reviewers for their generous time...

Although offered as an ERC Advanced Grant, the process for UKRI transfer has been smooth. A new research adventure to begin on multi-scale models of hybrid organic-inorganic conductors! ⚡️

To my surprise, I got to chair a fantastic afternoon seminar at @impchemistry that included Emma Wolpert and the GAP legend Gábor Csányi. Raising #compchem to new levels!
