研究领域
The group's research interests focus on the electronic structure of inorganic systems. We apply a variety of computational methods, from semi-empirical theories such as extended Huckel theory to multi-configurational SCF to explore problems of structure, spectroscopy and reactivity. The majority of our work involves close collaboration with experimental groups involved in the study of electronic structure, magnetochemistry, electrochemistry and reactivity.
