My research interests include magnetic phenomena, electrochemistry, solid state physics. I enjoy developing new theoretical methods in computational chemistry and solid state physics and implementing them in first-principles programming codes. Some of my projects include NMR calculation in periodic systems, electrochemical oxidation of ammonia on Pt surface, defects in wide bandgap semiconductors, single-molecule magnetic complexes on metal and semiconductor surfaces.
