研究领域

"Theoretical/computational first principles electronic structure and molecular dynamics studies of materials properties/surfaces and interfaces/nanostructured materials/surface chemistry/heterogeneous catalysis/electrochemistry/photocatalysis."Materials and processes that are relevant for energy applications and environmental remediation, e.g., metal oxides, photocatalysis and photovoltaics."Research in the Selloni group is focused on theoretical/computational studies of materials properties via first principles electronic structure and molecular dynamics simulations. Our goal is to understand and predict the properties and behavior of materials at a fundamental level, using computational tools based on first principles (or “ab-initio”) quantum mechanical methods.
Our research include bulk materials (mainly semiconductors and insulators), surfaces and interfaces (solid-liquid and organic-inorganic interfaces), nanostructures. We are interested in electronic, magnetic and optical properties; defect states; surface structure and reactivity (structure-function relations); adsorption of molecules and molecular monolayers on metal and semiconductor surfaces, surface functionalization; electron and proton transfer reactions, particularly at the solid/water interface, reaction pathways and free energy barriers; electrochemical cells and dye sensitized solar cells."
