The basic foundations
of our technology, and its foreseen development in the 21st century,
basically lie on the physical sciences and, if one desires to
distinguish, also material science. To meet the ever-increasing demand
for novel materials, and at the same time satisfy the growing public
concern for the energy/power consumption and environmental impacts,
novel routines other than relying on the age-old tradition of
trial-and-error/hit-and-miss would be necessary. Given these
circumstances, we need to develop novel theoretical routines and
techniques that could quickly and efficiently find novel materials for
synthesis, that would suit our purposes. The theoretical routines and
techniques necessary should incorporate quantum mechanics per se, and
should not be dependent on experimental results and/or empirical
parameters. Ab-Initio/First Principles Calculations satisfy all these
requirements. With recent developments in computational techniques,
coupled with the rapid progress in computer efficiency, ab-initio/first
principles-based COMPUTATIONAL MATERIALS DESIGN (CMD®) is
now a reality. Its impact/influence on industrial R&D should
increase with the passing years. The purpose of these series of
workshops is to provide the participants with a first-hand experience
of how COMPUTATIONAL MATERIALS DESIGN (CMD®) is carried out,
provide them with the basic knowledge and techniques, to better prepare
them for the new paradigm in materials science research. |

|
|
Lectures, as well as
hand-on sessions, will be conducted for the purpose of imparting on the
participants various quantum simulations techniques, that could be
applied in performing ab-initio based design of nano-materials and
nano-devices. |
|
|
|
Participants are
required to attend all the sessions held in their respective courses,
including the night sessions. |
