Welcome to the TMM Research Group

Our previous Master student, Ms. Shuyao Lin, who is now a PhD student at the TU Wien, publishes her work in an article in Materials Today Physics, revealing that the thermal conductivities of antiferroelectric materials can be changed up to 50% by applying electric fields.

FAIRMat has appointed Prof. Dr. Hongbin Zhang as a new PI for its Task E4 on Magnetism and Spintronics.

We congratulate Chen Shen to his very successful PhD defense. He was awarded a summa cum laude for his PhD defense on “Designing Functional Materials Driven by the Lattice Degree of Freedom.” Well Done Chen !!

NHR Scholarship student from China

In September Wenling Ren has joined the TMM research group as a PhD student with the NHR Graduate School from the NHR Center for Computational Engineering Sciences (NHR4CES, https://www.nhr4ces.de). She has been awarded a scholarship for three years. She will be engaged in research on “Inverse Design of Functional Materials”.
