Materials Theory and Modeling Group
Dr. Lan Li’s research group develops and applies computer-based theoretical methodologies to capture structure-property-performance relationships and design materials for desired performance. Current research encompasses of:
- DNA-templated dye aggregate design for quantum entanglement and quantum information applications
- Nuclear materials and sensor devices
- Low-dimensional materials growth, properties and performance
- Multiscale modeling and data-intensive/-driven approach development and implementation
- Cyberinfrastructure development to accelerate materials design
