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\n16:00 – 16:05 Welcome and introduction in Ramsay Lecture Theatre\, Christopher Ingold Building \n\n\n\n16:05 – 16:45\n\n\n\nCorrelating interfacial electronic and topographical properties of ZnO/MPc heterojunctions\n\n\n\nZinc oxide (ZnO) as a transparent semiconductor oxide and metal phthalocyanines (MPcs) asplanar conjugated molecules are progressively introduced to low-cost small molecular organicelectronic and optoelectronic devices such as sensors and solar cells. Despite their combinedapplication\, a comprehensive understanding of the electronic interaction at their interface ismissing. In this study\, we focus on the interface creation between MPcs with ZnO substrate. Forinstance\, assuming the fact that the difference in the electronic configuration of the central metalion of the phthalocyanine should noticeably influence the bonding mechanism and chargetransfer/redistribution characteristics with ZnO\, we will consider the severity of this reaction inhybrid ZnO/MPc structures.Utilizing in-situ X-ray and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS and UPS)\, as well as exsitu X-ray diffraction pattern\, and atomic force microscopy\, we will discuss the potential chargeredistribution and transport based on the created interfacial dipoles\, work function evolution\, andenergy level alignment. Finally\, the experimental findings are interpreted alongside ongoing DFTbased modeling of the ZnO/MPc interfaces using CP2K. \n\n\n\nBiography\n\n\n\nSakineh Akbari Nia is a PhD student in materials engineering – Physics at the Silesian Universityof technology\, Poland\, where her research contributes to energy materials\, particularly foradvanced optoelectronic devices. Her work centers on clarifying and engineering the complexinterfacial properties within inorganic–organic hybrid structures\, essential for performanceoptimization of OLEDs and solar cells. Building upon her master studies\, MEH-PPV-based OLEDfabrication and optimization\, she now employs an interdisciplinary approach for cutting-edgeinterface optimization. For this purpose\, she combines advanced experimental characterizationtechniques including spectroscopy (XPS\, UPS\, and STS) and microscopy (AFM and STM) withDensity Functional Theory computations using CP2K code. \n\n\n\n16:50 onwards\n\n\n\nNetworking\, snacks and soft drinks

SUMMARY:TYC20 - Celebration of the Thomas Young Centre at 20
DESCRIPTION:  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTYC20 – Celebration of the Thomas Young Centre at 20 Share on X\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTo mark the Thomas Young Centre turning 20\, we will be hosting a 2-day symposium\,  celebrating 20 years of cutting-edge research in the theory and simulation of materials and molecules at University College London\, Imperial College London\, King‘s College London\, Queen Mary University of London and their international collaborators. \n\n\n\nThis scientific symposium will cover cutting-edge research in 5 sessions dedicated to Electronic Structure Theory\, Machine Learning\, Functional Materials\, Biomaterials and Perspectives on Materials Modelling. A separate session will be devoted to discussions about the future of theory and simulation of materials and molecules with the aim of developing a future Roadmap of Materials Modelling that identifies and articulates the most important challenges in this field over the next 10 years\, broad strategies for how they will be overcome\, and the likely impact of success in overcoming them for science and industry.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister here!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration deadline: Sunday 1 November 2026 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTYC20 Programme of talks:\n\n\n\n12102026 TYC20 Summary ProgrammeDownload\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRecommended hotels: \n\n\n\n Strand Palace Location | Hotel near Covent Garden LondonImperial London Hotels | Bloomsbury \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSponsors\n\n\n\nCCP5CCP9The London Centre for NanotechnologyUCL Condensed Matter and Materials Physics GroupUCL Physics & Astronomy Department. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOrganisers\n\n\n\nJochen BlumbergerHugh BurtonDevis Di TommasoJarvist FrostAlex GanoseRicardo Grau-CrespoVenkat Kapil Johannes LischnerCarla MolteniEdina RostaAlex ShlugerKaren StonehamMartijn Zwijnenburg \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUnder government regulations\, we must at least provide a 14 day cancellation period for customers\, from the point the booking is made. \n\n\n\n
