Research background
Dr. Tritsaris have been conducting research at the intersection of physics, materials, and computation with focus on developing and using theoretical concepts, models and methods to obtain new insights into the physical processes that govern scientifically and technologically interesting nanostructures. The main idea is to systematically increase our knowledge of matter at the atomic scale by using supercomputers and intelligent algorithms to conduct virtual experiments and circumvent the trial and error nature of the lab. A recent theme has been the integration of physics-based and data-driven models into high-throughput workflows for extracting broadly applicable physical insights from large materials data sets and guide the design of novel nanostructures. Typical structures of interest describe composite, low-dimensional, and carbon- and transition metal oxide-based nanomaterials with applications in catalysis, photovoltaics, batteries, and quantum technology.
