-I am highly interested in the offered research project covering the simulation and modeling of battery materials with a focus on silicon based anode materials for various reasons.
-Next to the familiarity as well as my interest in the materials system, I am pretty much convinced that battery technology constitutes a key factor to solve some of the many problems related to the ongoing energy revolution.
-I would like to have the possibility to contribute.
-Furthermore, I would like to continue and deepen my research activities in the field of computational materials science and the respective methods such as density functional theory and applications beyond.
+I am highly interested in the offered research project involving methods that go beyond ground-state density functional theory.
+Modeling a self-organization process realized by a rather simple Monte-Carlo code within the Diploma thesis followed by the doctoral reaseach investigations utilizing the slightly more sophisticated empirical potential molecular dynamics approach, which was extended by the more accurate quantum-mechanical calculations, allowed to gain a considerable amount of experiences within the respective methods and the focus on structures and structural evolution on the nanoscale.
