Research Interests
I am doing research in the field of theoretical condensed
matter physics.
The primary focus of my research lies in the fundamental
understanding of growth mechanisms, novel properties,
functionalization, and potential technological applications of
surface-based and carbon based nanostructures. Especially, I am
interested in utilizing these materials as energy storage media
with a high and efficient retrievability by making use of their
unique nanoscale properties.
My theoretical approach ranges from first-principle
calculations within density functional theory to molecular
dynamics and Monte Carlo simulations, continuum elasticity
theory, and microscopic and phenomenological modeling.
