Predicting materials for solar energy conversion: ab-initio spectroscopy of heterogeneous interfaces

COFFEE_KLATCH  · Invited

Abstract

We will discuss some progress in predicting materials for solar energy conversion using ab initio calculations, in particular we will focus on heterogeneous interfaces between photo-electrodes and water and between nanocomposites. We will also address the problem of building much needed tighter connections between computational and laboratory experiments.
