Research Interests
Our computational condensed matter research group focuses on exploring diverse nanomaterials and quantum materials. We develop and apply density functional theory (DFT) simulations coupled with theoretical models to design and predict novel materials and reveal their novel electronic, topological, magnetic, optical, and phononic properties.
