Join us!

If you have been always excited about Hermitian and non-Hermitian operators, you want to deepen your (and our) knowledge on quantum materials in interaction with light (or sometimes without), you are not afraid of computers, and you enjoy to work in an agile international team: make your bachelor, your master or even your PhD thesis in the LMCQM group. Contact Michael for further details.

We are a theoretical condensed matter physics research group having fun at the intersection of non-equilibrium many-body physics, quantum materials, and quantum optics. We also simulate atomistic systems with different levels of approximations, and participate in the development of an open source scientific software package which is used all over the world.

We are part of the Institute of Theoretical Solid-State Physics and the Bremen Center for Computational Materials Science.

Rationalization of the light-induced electron injection mechanism in a model 1D ZnO nanowire-dye complex: insights from real-time TD-DFTB simulations

D. M. Márquez, C. R. Lien-Medrano, G. J. Soldano and  C. G. Sánchez

Nanoscale

Zinc oxide nanowires (ZnO NWs) possess a unique one-dimensional (1D) morphology that offers a direct pathway for charge transport. In this article, we present the first application of the real-time time-dependent density…
