BaZrS3 is an emerging solar-cell material ☀️ In a preprint led by @biancapasca.bsky.social, we describe an ML potential that can tackle the structural complexity of amorphous and polycrystalline BaZrS3. Very happy to see this online! Read more at arxiv.org/abs/2506.01517

Machine-learning-driven modelling of amorphous and polycrystalline BaZrS$_{3}$

The chalcogenide perovskite material BaZrS$_{3}$ is of growing interest for emerging thin-film photovoltaics. Here we show how machine-learning-driven modelling can be used to describe the material's ...

🚀 Bringing self-driving labs to the synchrotron! 🚀

Excited to share our latest work introducing an autonomous synthesis method explicitly designed to target atomic-scale structures!

📝 Read the preprint here: lnkd.in/dmfzwEDQ

I appreciate the support from @novo-nordisk.bsky.social

“It works! The system works!”, cheers erupted at DanMAX beamline as researachers confirmed their inventive autonomous nanoparticle synthesis system was a success. Combining machine learning + robotics, the technology promises to accelerate the discovery of functional materials. Read:

Still taking it all in 🥹 being in Paris for the Inflection Award was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Humbled to be named one of the 30 best young scientists working on climate solutions and to stand alongside such an incredible cohort of researchers pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.

Can we “design” amorphous materials with useful properties? We argue that #compchem & AI are bringing us closer towards this ambitious goal: rdcu.be/d3JD6

The amorphous state as a frontier in computational materials design

Nature Reviews Materials - Amorphous materials are increasingly central components of key technologies, but their structures remain challenging to study. This Perspective highlights how recent...
