摘要
(Chemical Equation Presented) Gazing into the crystal ball: The prediction of crystal structures is one of the most challenging problems in theoretical chemistry. In the metadynamics approach described, the search for stable polymorphs is guided by the Gibbs free energy and takes the role of temperature and pressure fully into account. This method was used to predict the polymorphs of benzene (see picture) and solve many contradictions and uncertainties about its phase diagram. © 2005 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
