Computational Materials Theory Laboratory
Welcome to Park Research Group!
Computational condensed matter physics aims to provide insight through computational simulations, uncovering the mechanisms that lead to emerging new properties or phase transitions.
Using density functional theory (DFT) and many-body methodologies based on DFT-based modeling, our lab investigates material properties of a wide range of systems, with particular focus on the following topics.
Investigation of materials properties using first-principles density functional theory and beyond DFT methods, incorporating many-body effects
Magnetism and ferroelectricity of complex oxides and oxide heterostructures
Control of materials properties utilizing van der Waals heterostructures
Optical and transport properties emerging from topological band structures
Metal-insulator transitions from strong correlations
Information about our ongoing projects, a list of publications, and group members is provided on the rest of our website.
