Broad Research Area: Numerical/Scientific Computing / HPC / Data-Intensive Scalable Computing, Other

Research Interests:

I work in the areas of computational electronics and quantum transport theory. My group uses a variery of numerical techniques to address the transport of charge and heat in semiconductor nanostructures. Some of our recent projects include:

(1) Electronic and thermal properties of nanostructures. Nanostructured thermoelectrics
(2) Monte Carlo simulation of quantum cascade lasers
(3) Decoherence in nanostructures
(4) Quantum Computing
(5) Global modeling of carrier-field dynamics in conductive media using EMC/FDTD
(6) Flexible electronic systems (e.g. semiconductor membranes and ribbons)
(7) Solid-state-based quantum information processing. Spintronics
