Introduction
Welcome to the web pages of the computational chemistry group
led by Prof. Graeme W. Watson. The group uses advanced computational
techniques to study a range of problems at the atomic level. These include;
(i) solid state problems such as transparent conducting oxides, magnetic semiconductors, fast ion conductors, lithium batteries etc.
(ii) Surface structure and reactivity including surface reconstruction, thin films, molecular adsorption, catalysis, surface oxidation and reduction
(iii) molecular properties such as organic reaction mechanisms, molecular
excited states and optoelectronic material
On the links in the menu above you will find information about the research that we do, the journal
papers we publish, the group membership, funding and research opportunities, recent news with regard
to the group and some of the teaching that I do.
