Atomistic calculations of nanostructures: from semi-empirical to ab-initio approaches
| Title of the project | Atomistic calculations of nanostructures: from semi-empirical to ab-initio approaches |
| Primary and secondary scientific disciplines | physics, chemistry |
| Description of the project | Characteristics and main objectives of the research project:
· I aim for atomistic calculations of detailed spectral properties of various realistic quantum dots and nanowires. · I plan to utilize semi-empirical tools such as the empirical tight-binding method coupled with the configuration interaction method. · This will be an important step forward, spanning a bridge between the traditional world of solid state theory and the realm of quantum chemistry The project is conducted in cooperation with: KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden Principal supervisor: Dr hab. Michał Zieliński, prof. NCU |
