The Molecular Physics Group
The group covers both theoretical and experimental research and makes extensive use of
quantum chemical approaches.
Main research topics include computer modelling of solid-state properties and surfaces,
notably semiconductors and diamond, and energy dissipation in small molecular and atomic fragments.
Additional research is aimed at exploring light-induced electron and energy transfer processes
in molecular assemblies, most of which are synthesized in-house.
