Research in his Materials Theory Group is fundamentally based on computer simulations of electronic motion governed by quantum physics and resulting electron-mediated inter-atomic interactions which are responsible for multi-scale behaviour of materials. Deriving material-specific information on [[chemical bond]]ing and microscopic couplings that are essential to the specific properties of a material, they develop fundamental understanding of a material in terms of its [[Atom|atomic structure]] and [[Energy level|electronic structure]]. The goal of their theoretical analysis is to derive material-specific properties on the macroscopic and intermediate length and time scales starting from a [[first principles]] description of chemistry and atomic structure. | Research in his Materials Theory Group is fundamentally based on computer simulations of electronic motion governed by quantum physics and resulting electron-mediated inter-atomic interactions which are responsible for multi-scale behaviour of materials.
