A computational materials science lab that understands and predicts the properties of materials from electron theory.
AboutAbout the lab
Understanding and predicting material properties based on electron theory
Miyake Lab studies how to understand and predict the properties of materials (physical properties) from the theory of electrons.
It solves equations based on quantum mechanics with computational simulations and expresses material properties numerically.
Based on those results, the lab clarifies the mechanisms behind material properties and designs materials.
For this purpose, it also develops computational science methods and data-driven methods.
Key terms
- Material properties
- The various properties a material shows, such as how easily electricity flows through it or whether it becomes a magnet
- First-principles calculation
- A method of calculating the properties of a material from the fundamental laws of quantum mechanics, without relying on experimental values
- Data-driven methods
- An approach that finds patterns in large amounts of data and uses them for calculation and prediction
ResearchResearch themes
