Simulated battery cathode materials using first-principles methods (DFT+U+V) with Quantum ESPRESSO and AiiDA, generating Raman spectra to analyze structural and vibrational behavior, under the supervision of Dr. Iurii Timrov and Prof. Nicola Marzari.
Evaluated glass coatings and a flame-retardant polymer encapsulant for Building-Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) applications, assessing their impact on system performance and durability, under the supervision of Prof. Christophe Ballif.
Teaching assistant for the 2nd year Quantum Physics course in the spring semester 2025 assisting Prof. Alfredo Pasquarello. Weekly exercise classes for students of the course.
Teaching assistant for the 2nd year Continuum Mechanics course in the fall semester 2024 assisting Prof. Jean-Marie Drezet. Weekly exercise classes for students of the course, covering stress and strain tensors, conservation laws and fluid mechanics.
Under EPFL’s Summer in the Lab internship program, I had the opportunity to investigate the formation of perovskite semiconductors in the Laboratory for Molecular Engineering of Optoelectronic Nanomaterials (LIMNO), under the supervision on Prof. Kevin Sivula and Dr. Waygen Thor. Additionally, workshops about leadership and communication were followed as part of the program.
