Expertise

Our primary scientific interests are focused on various aspects of structural chemistry. These in particular involve development of new quantum chemistry models to analyze infrared and microwave spectra of molecules performing large amplitude motions and theoretical and experimental studies in atomic and molecular spectroscopy.

Our scientific interests also include the application of quantum chemistry and molecular mechanics/dynamics to large macromolecular systems. In particular we are interested in structural aspects of enzyme inhibition.

Independently we are pursuing research in the area of surface science chemistry. Using both theoretical and experimental approaches, we are investigating structural and energetic aspects of adsorbate/surface interactions.

Our interest in materials science also involves biomimetics and properties of magnetic materials with the emphasis on magnetic thin films.
