ABSTRACT
Dispersive force is a type of noncovalent force that widely exist between molecules. Examples include hydrogen bonding and van der Waals (vdW) interactions, which are crucial for the formation entropy, mechanical stability, and electro-optical properties of molecular materials and related devices. Applying compression can decrease the distance between molecules or atoms and induce a variety of interesting physical and chemical properties, offering an adjustable independent-variable in experiment to tune the properties of molecular materials (Wang et al. 1991, 2007, 2012; Sundqvist 1999; Chen et al. 2011).
