What Does AIM Stand For?
AIM stands for Atoms In Molecules Method
The Atoms In Molecules Method (AIM) is a theoretical framework used in quantum chemistry to analyze the electronic structure of molecules. It offers insights into the distribution of electron density and identifies bonding interactions through the topological analysis of the electron density function. By applying AIM, researchers can gain a deeper understanding of molecular properties, interactions, and stability, facilitating advancements in areas such as material science, drug design, and molecular modeling.
