Rahman Prize (2022): The universal language of quantum simulations

ORAL · Invited

Abstract

We discuss studies of materials for sustainable energy sources and quantum technologies carried out using ab initio simulations. We show that, despite several approximations to the basic equations of quantum mechanics and the computational challenges in describing realistic size and time scales, insightful predictions can be made that are not only corroborated by experiments but inspire new ones.
