IESL SEMINARWednesday 27/08/2025, 12:00FORTH Seminar Room: C. Fotakis Title:Computational Characterization of Metallic and Semiconducting Materials via Many-Body Perturbation Theory Abstract:The accurate prediction of optical and excitonic properties in low-dimensional materialspresents a unique set of theoretical and computational challenges—particularly when dealingwith the competing electronic characteristics of semiconducting and metallic systems. In thistalk, I present a set…
