Minimum-energy path (MEP) calculations, such as those typified by the nudged elastic band method, require input of reactant and product molecular configurations at initialization. In case reactions involving more than one molecule, generating initial requires careful consideration relative position orientations reactive molecules in order to ensure that resulting MEP calculation proceeds withou...

High-index spherical dielectric nanoparticles are explored as templates for tailoring the fluorescence of nearby electric point-dipole-like emitters. The role emitter orientation and position around nanosphere on modification both its excitation emission rate is studied rigorously through derivation appropriate analytic solutions. It shown that nanoparticles, which support a richness optical mo...
