Unit

Chair of Atomic Scale Simulation

Laboratory
Summary

The Chair of Atomic Scale Simulation at EPFL, led by Prof. Alfredo Pasquarello, focuses on studying atomic-scale phenomena from both structural and dynamical perspectives. By employing quantum mechanical descriptions based on density functional theory, the unit aims to provide a realistic understanding of atomic and nanometer-scale mechanisms. Research projects include the investigation of disordered materials and oxide-semiconductor interfaces, with applications in glass manufacturing and microelectronic technology. The unit's work, supported by high-performance computers, contributes to advancements in physics, chemistry, biology, and materials science, making significant contributions to the field of atomic-scale simulation.
