Summer School on the Calculation of Ionic Quantum and Anharmonic Effects with the Stochastic Self-Consistent Harmonic Approximation (SSCHA school 2023)

26.juin - 30. juin, 2023 Cod. Z07-23

Description

The efficient and accurate calculation of how ionic quantum and thermal fluctuations impact the free energy of a crystal, its atomic structure, and phonon spectrum is one of the main challenges of solid state physics, especially when strong anharmonicy invalidates any perturbative approach. To tackle this problem, this school combines theoretical lectures as well as hands-on sessions on the stochastic self-consistent harmonic approximation (SSCHA) method, which is devised to tackle efficiently these problems, given by the developers of the code.

Ion Errea

UPV/EHU

Ion Errea is an Associate Professor at the University of the Basque Country and leads the Quantum Theory of Materials group at the Centro de Física de Materiales. His research focusses on the development of theoretical methods for calculating complex properties of solids, such as quantum and anharmonic effects in atomic vibrations and the electron-phonon interaction, and the application of these methods in hydrogen-based superconductors, thermoelectric materials, phase transitions in solids, nanostructures, etc. He is an ERC grantee, research associate at the Donostia International Physics Center, and member of Jakiunde.
