Research Description:
The development of efficient and accurate quantum mechanics simulation techniques, including embedded correlated wave function and orbital-free density functional theories. Applications are focused on enabling discovery and design of materials and processes for producing chemicals, materials, and fuels from renewable energy, with a specific emphasis on carbon dioxide utilization and ammonia/hydrogen conversion.
