This project aims to understand non-equilibrium aspects of nanocrystal growth in determined shapes. The research will provide quantitative insights into the role of crystal lattice and solution concentration field on morphological features such as twinning, branching, and chirality. Research techniques majorly involve the use and further development of a kinetic Monte Carlo simulation framework, coded in C++. Other supportive research techniques may involve molecular dynamics, density functional theory, and lattice Boltzmann simulations. Results will be validated and applied in collaborations with experimentalists.
Funding Comment
