Research Intrest

Ab initio study of the structural, electronic, optical, plasmonic and transport properties of nanostructures and interfaces for molecular electronics and energy conversion. The field of research includes: * Hybrid organic/inorganic interfaces * Polymers, (bio)molecules, and nanostructures * Thermodinamic stability, dynamical evolution and optical properties of molecules and nanostructures in solution. * Electronic and thermal transport and thermoelectricity in nanostructures and Wannier Functions - (WanT PROJECT )
