International Institute for Carbon Neutral Energy Research, Kyushu University
Welcome
Staykov laboratory specializes in theoretical and computational chemistry.
We use first-principle calculations to study the properties of solids, surfaces, and interfaces.
Amongst the preferred techniques are density functional theory, non-equilibrium Green's function method,
and first-principle molecular dynamics.
Staykov laboratory is part of the International Institute for Carbon-neutral Energy Research (I2CNER) at Kyushu University.
Our research is related towards simulation of materials used in the renewable energy technologies.
We investigate chemical processes at the surface and interfaces of complex oxides used in solid oxide fuel cells,
nanoparticles and nanostructures used in catalysis, and junction and interfaces with application in nanoelectronics and solar energy.
