About
I am a computational materials scientist with expertise in first-principles investigations of electron and phonon transport phenomena in semiconducting materials for renewable energy applications. My research focuses on understanding and optimizing finite-temperature effects, including electrical and thermal transport, lattice anharmonicity, and electron–phonon interactions, using density functional theory and atomistic modelling approaches. My long-term research goal is to integrate first-principles simulations with high-throughput computational screening and machine learning approaches to accelerate the discovery and design of sustainable energy materials.
