Dendrimers are highly branched macromolecules which are prepared by a stepwise procedure. The presence of a well-defined core, discrete generations and a large number of terminal groups in dendrimers make them structurally ...

A wide variety of computational methods are available for exploring molecular structures and reactivity in chemistry. These range from molecular mechanics calculations allowing determination of the geometry of a molecule ...

The goal of this thesis has been to throw light on a selection of open problems in chemical and biological physics using the general principles of statistical mechanics. These problems are all broadly concerned with the ...

Dendrimers are a class of perfectly branched symmetric monodisperse macromolecules, which are synthesized using a stepwise procedure. Due to their highly symmetric structure, they possess a definite core, discrete generations ...
