Impact factor: 4.814
Number of citations: 6
This is a joined research effort conducted by Georgia Institute of Technology, USA and the National Physical Laboratory, Teddington, Middlesex, UK. As the second author, I was in charge of the first-principles computational modelling. The approach described in this article provides an efficient pathway to allow the detection of trace concentrations of plastic explosives, hazardous chemicals and gases, as well as biomarkers important for sustaining public health and safety. This work received financial support from the National Science Foundation, USA, under award NSF-CBET 0930781, and by DARPA/US Army under award W31P4Q10C0027.
