研究领域

Inorganic Chemistry/Physical Chemistry/Materials Chemistry

The research in my group focuses on studying the electronic and geometrical structures, properties, and reactivity of molecules, nanosystems, interfaces and solids – whether they be inorganic or organic – using the computational approaches of quantum chemistry, and solid state physics (band structure methods).
