PEOPLE

Research Summary:

I am a Reader in Physics and a PI in the London Centre for Nanotechnology at UCL. My research concentrates on semiconductor surfaces and nanostructures on semiconductor surfaces, as well as the development of new techniques for modelling these systems. I am developing an interest in biological systems.

I use standard electronic structure codes (mainly density functional theory, or DFT) for much of my work, and am the lead UK developer of the CONQUEST code, which is a linear scaling DFT code, capable of simulating systems containing over 1,000,000 atoms.
