Research
I am a PhD candidate in the research group Inorganic Materials and Ceramics.
My project aims to obtain a more fundamental understanding of defect chemistry in hexagonal manganite structures (with focus on YMnO3) at interfaces by an ab initio calculation approach with Density Funtional Theory (DFT), as well as experimental work.
Main advisor: Associate Professor Sverre Magnus Selbach.
Co-advisor: Professor Svein Sunde
