Scientific interests:
- Quantum-chemical
studies of inorganic materials, including transition metals, oxides and
chalcogenides, with catalytic and photo-catalytic properties. Examining
stability, structure-properties relationship, reaction mechanisms, catalytic
active sites, and chemical dynamics. - Crystal structure modelling of transition metal oxides, zeoltes and zeolite-related aluminophosphates
using ab-initio methods.
