Quantum mechanical calculations

This line originated as a consequence of the need of identifying suitable intermediate band material candidates at early stages of the research. It uses state of the art quantum mechanical calculations to predict materials in which the existence of the intermediate band is present as well as to determine its optoelectronic properties.
