6th TYC Energy Materials workshop: Modelling Energy Interfaces
The Thomas Young Centre for the theory and simulation of materials and molecules in London is organising the TYC 6th Energy Materials workshop with focus on modelling energy interfaces.
Developing an efficient and sustainable energy technology remains one of the key global challenges, but this requires advances in the understanding of energy materials. Materials modelling can provide atomic-scale insights but applying these techniques to realistic in-operando interfaces is challenging. In this workshop, we bring together leading theorists and experimentalists to discuss the current state-of-the-art in modelling interfaces and outline future directions guided by experimental and technological needs.
In addition to invited talks, we invite applications for contributed talks (20 + 5 minutes). Abstract submission deadline extended to 19 September 2022
