Research Overview

Quantum Engineering of Advanced Materials and Devices

• Nanoscale material modelling and discovery i.e. Electronic, vibrational and magnetic structures; Quantum, phonon and spin transport; Environmental effects on transport e.g. biological interaction, chemical stimulus, electrochemical gating, photo effect, temperature gradient, electric and magnetic field effect

• Molecular electronics i.e. Quantum and phonon interference; Energy harvesting e.g. Thermoelectricity and Piezoelectricity; Biological sensing; Transistors; Spintronic; Optoelectronics; Molecular electronic building blocks i.e. switches, transistors and rectifiers

• One and two dimensional materials i.e. Single molecules and clusters; Self assembled monolayers; Van-der Waals heterostructures; 2D materials; Graphene nanojunctions; Carbon nanotubes; Molecular graphene nanoribbons

• Multiscale modelling i.e. Density functional theory; Computational quantum chemistry; Tight-binding modelling; Molecular dynamics; Quantum transport

• GOLLUM: We co-develop the next generation uantum transport simulation tool: GOLLUMLink opens in a new window
