AIDME: A Theoretical Group Betters Realistic Materials

科研见格局 - 理想系国家 - 胸襟纳世界

A vast amount of materials studied in laboratories may exhibit many superior properties. However, the outdoor realistic environments can have a great impact on their performance and lifetime, which has prohibited many good-in-lab materials from the anticipated applications.

Our Research: We develop & use advanced computational-material approaches to simulate & design many important solid materials (e.g., alloys, native oxides, protective coatings) working in various environmental conditions (e.g., space, atmospheres, solutions, low/high temperatures, mechanical load). 

Our Targets are (1) understanding clearly, (2) predicting accurately, (3) designing reasonably, and (4) collaborating with experiment closely for solid materials in realistic environments.

Simulation Methods: We mainly use Density-Functional Theory (DFT) for atomic-scale simulations, based on which we also extend our reach to larger-scale simulations using molecular dynamics, Monte-Carlo simulation, and analytical methods.

研究方向：AIDME小组是一个以复杂苛刻环境下优异使役材料的微观机理探索和性能精准设计为追求目标的计算材料科学研究小组，开发和利用高精度、高效率的第一性原理模拟方法，重点探索各类金属合金、氧化物、硬质/润滑/防腐涂层在高温和海洋等复杂多变实际环境下的微观过程和物理性质，并为其建立深刻的物理、化学和冶金原理图像，以此有效指导实验探索和新型材料的研发。

科研状态：AIDME课题组是个精干、高效、专业的理论小组，也和许多国内外非常优秀的理论/实验团队长期保持紧密的合作关系，并且已经在许多优秀的国际学术期刊上发表科研论文，比如Physical Review Letters、Acta Materialia、Journal of the American Chemical Society、npj Materials Degradation、Annual Review of Materials Research、Advanced Functional Materials、Chemistry of Materials、ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces、ACS Photonics、Chemical Engineering Journal.等。

就业前景：作为材料研究领域的“军师”和“谋士”，我们有非常广阔的就业机会，比如国际范围内的高校、研究所、材料设计/研发公司、大/小型超级计算机公司工程师、其它各类工业/科技服务和支撑岗位。对于那些有学术志向、愿望通过自己的科学研究来实现美好未来的年轻人来说，本课题组是个非常合适的发展平台，也欢迎物理、冶金、化学、材料专业背景的学生报考本课题组研究生。
