Associate Professor Ioannis N. Remediakis, got his bachelor (1997), masters (1998) PhD (2002) degrees from the Department of Physics, University of Crete. His PhD research (simulations for alloyed semiconductor surfaces) was performed at Harvard University. Between 2002 and 2008, he held teaching and research appointments at the University of Ioannina, the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) and the University of Crete. In 2008, he joined Department of Materials Science and Technology, and shortly after he joined IESL as affiliated University Faculty Member.

Interests

• First-principles computer simulations for low-dimensional systems with applications to nano-chemistry (shape and properties of metal nanoparticles, heterogeneous catalysis) and nano-physics (two-dimensional semiconductors, nanostructured solids).
• Electronic structure theory.
