Tzu-chen Liu

Research Interests

• Ab initio simulations on crystalline disordered materials, including multi-cation disordered rocksalt cathodes, high-entropy alloys, mixed-anion/cation perovskites, and complex transition metal oxides for energy applications.

• Theoretical investigations of ground states and finite-temperature order/disorder in cluster-expansion descriptions, and accurate remediation of DFT overdelocalization in complex TM oxides using hybrid functionals and DFT+U.
