Chair Materials Science and Nanotechnology at TU Dresden

Biological complexity suggests marvellous strategies on how to design bottom-up advanced materials.

The main research and teaching activities of the chair are focused on concepts, quantitative methods and experiments for understanding and mastering truly nanoscale phenomena. Nanomechanics and nanoelectronics are the key issues of our fundamental investigations aiming at developing non conventional strategies for producing and exploiting new devices and materials with an intrinsic nanoscale complexity. That is why a large part of our investigations involves biomaterials.

New DFTB-based approach for computing electron–phonon couplings and relaxation times in Journal of Computational Electronics by ULTIMATE ITN partners from Chair Materials Science and Nanotechnology at TU Dresden TU Dresden led by Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Fellow Elif Ünsal! ⚗️🖥️⚡️🤩

DFTBephy: A DFTB-based approach for electron–phonon coupling calculations - Journal of Computational Electronics The calculation of the electron–phonon coupling from first principles is computationally very challenging and remains mostly out of reach for systems with a large number of atoms. Semi-empirical methods, like density functional tight binding (DFTB), provide a framework for obtaining quantitative r...
