SUMMARY:TYC Junior Research Fellowship talks
DESCRIPTION:TYC Junior Research Fellowship talks Share on X\n\n\n\n\nJRF Awardees present the outcomes of their visit to the TYC at a seminar at UCL. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSchedule\n\n\n\n13:00 – 13:05 Welcome and introduction in A1/3 (top floor) \n\n\n\n13:05 – 13:45\n\n\n\nEsmée Berger\, Chalmers University – Connecting ongoing work at Chalmers on machine-learned potentials and large-scale atomistic simulations with the TYC community.\n\n\n\nSolid–liquid interfaces are central to many phenomena in condensed matter physics\, chemistry\, and materials science\, yet remain challenging to describe at the atomic scale. In this talk\, I will present a computational framework for studying aqueous interfaces based on large-scale atomistic simulations with machine-learned interatomic potentials. I will highlight recent developments that enable the treatment of electrostatics and nuclear quantum effects\, and discuss how simulation results can be connected to experimentally accessible structural and dynamical observables\, particularly from scattering experiments. In addition\, I will outline ongoing work on silica–water interfaces under varying chemical conditions. \n\n\n\n13:45 – 14:25\n\n\n\nGianmarco Biagi\, University of Bologna – A computational study of polaron formation\, hopping mechanisms\, and dynamics in amorphous SiO₂\n\n\n\nAbstract: Using pre-existing amorphous SiO₂ structures generated within the group\, I aim to reproduce and extend the results of El-Sayed et al. (2014)\, which identified structural precursors for spontaneous electron localisation in a-SiO₂\, forming deep polaron states. Building on this foundation\, my work focuses on characterising polaron localisation sites and studying hopping dynamics between states using ab initio molecular dynamics simulations. \n\n\n\n14:25 onwards\n\n\n\nNetworking\, snacks and soft drinks in E7 (ground floor).

SUMMARY:QMUL CCMP Seminar: Phase stability and short-range order in high entropy oxides
DESCRIPTION:QMUL CCMP Seminar: Phase stability and short-range order in high entropy oxides Share on X\n\n\n\n\nDr. Solveig Aamlid\, Ecole Polytechnique\, Paris\n\n\n\nThis seminar starts with a general introduction to high entropy oxides and entropy stabilized oxides\, including key applications and characterization techniques. I will then discuss how we can computationally predict the thermodynamic phase stability of such materials\, and show examples of experimental synthesis attempts. The role of local distortions and short-range ordering with emphasis on how they are affected when the number of constituents is increased is presented next. I will conclude with a discussion on aliovalent substitutions and collective properties\, which are topics currently under investigation.
