研究领域

Quantum-mechanics based theories such as density-functional theory now allow one to address nanostructures of up to a few thousand atoms, as well as periodic solids, surfaces, and nanowires, their defects, electronic structure, optical properties etc. The field is moving fast, fueled by the advances of computers, and by the algorithms, approximations, and computer codes developed by groups such as ours.
