These computer programs are theoretical tools in our studies. We are also involved in developing the software in order to studying new material properties. We use world-leading and very powerful computer programs to calculate the fundamental properties of materials (Wien2k,VASP, Exciting). The majority of the materials investigated in our section are related to sustainable energy solutions such as solar cell technology, hydrogen storage, batteries, fuel cells, thermoelectrics, cooling/heating upon phase transitions etc. We do fundamental research on applied topics by both theoretical and experimental approaches. The section is a member of the Centre for Material science and nanotechnology ( SMN) and in charge of running the national transmission electron microscopy facility NorTEM node in Oslo. The illustration image show an example of atomic resolved STEM image recorded on the NorTEM TITAN instrument operated by P.D.
