Atomistic study of energy funneling in the light-harvesting complex of green sulfur bacteria.
Joonsuk Huh,Semion K. Saikin,Jennifer C. Brookes,Jennifer C. Brookes,Stéphanie Valleau,Takatoshi Fujita,Alán Aspuru-Guzik +6 more
TL;DR: The atomistic model mimics a complete light-harvesting apparatus of green sulfur bacteria and shows that the fast relaxation within functional subunits combined with the transfer between collective excited states of pigments can result in robust energy funneling to the initial excitation conditions and temperature changes.

TL;DR: Kraken as discussed by the authors is a discovery platform covering monodentate organophosphorus(III) ligands providing comprehensive physicochemical descriptors based on representative conformer ensembles.
Ti Substitution Facilitating Oxygen Oxidation in Na2/3Mg1/3Ti1/6Mn1/2O2 Cathode
Chenglong Zhao,Zhenpeng Yao,Jianlin Wang,Yaxiang Lu,Xuedong Bai,Alán Aspuru-Guzik,Alán Aspuru-Guzik,Liquan Chen,Yong-Sheng Hu +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors employed chemical substitution in Na2/3TMO2 (TM = transition metal) layered compounds with different stacking modes: O3-Na 2/3Mg 1/3Ti 2/1/3O2 and P2-Na 1/6Mn 1/2O2 to improve the stability of high-voltage plateau and total reversible capacity.

Expressibility and entangling capability of parameterized quantum circuits for hybrid quantum-classical algorithms
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed several descriptors, including measures of expressibility and entangling capability, to characterize and identify expressible, yet compact, parameterized circuits, that can be statistically estimated from classical simulations of parameterized quantum circuits.

Efficient quantum circuits for diagonal unitaries without ancillas
TL;DR: In this article, a correspondence between Walsh functions and a basis for diagonal operators is proposed to reduce the complexity of constructing a minimal-depth circuit within a given error tolerance, for an arbitrary diagonal unitary in the basis.
