Post Doctoral Fellow
Research group: Condensed Matter
Research interests:
I studied Physics at the University of Zaragoza where I obtained my PhD in 2020. During my PhD I worked on the search of a new route to improve the exchange and correlation functionals in Density Functional Theory; the testing, development and implementation of numerical methods for Time Dependent Density Functional Theory (TDDFT) and hybrid classical-quantum systems in Molecular Dynamics; and an application of Optimal Control Theory combined with TDDFT to find laser pulses (subjected to certain restrictions) that drive small clusters of atoms towards their Coulomb explosion.
My current research is concerned with the application of ab-initio techniques to the study of solid state physics, more concretely the research of phonons and how the excitation of certain phononic modes can affect the symmetry of a crystal.
