AK Fink focuses on theoretical and computational physical chemistry, developing and applying electron structure methods to address scientific questions within physical chemistry. The group's research emphasizes four primary areas: short-range molecular interaction energies, theory of organic solar cells, calculation of core electron spectra, and development of quantum chemical computational methods. A significant aspect of their work involves understanding the Pauli repulsion and its impact on the structure of matter. They have developed a model to express the repulsion energy as a sum of orbital contributions, enhancing the understanding of the structure of molecular aggregates that are crucial for biological and materials science. The lab has also created and validated models pertaining to the transport properties of organic materials, while identifying transport-limiting processes. Their research includes examining the structural implications for the optoelectronic properties of organic materials and developing quantum chemical methods such as RE-PT, S2-MP, and REMP for accurate predictions of thermodynamic parameters. The goal is to provide insights into energetic interactions relevant to the structure of solid substances and predict the absorption and transport properties of various materials.
Focus on Autonomous Vision, Machine Learning, and Computer Vision.
