Research interests

⁂ Structural solid-state and intermetallic chemistry

I examine families of structure types and perform DFT calculations to uncover the factors governing structural favorability.

⚛ Bonding and electronic structure

Intermetallic materials form bonds that range from metallic to ionic to covalent. My research describes their electronic structure from a chemist's perspective, toeing the border between local and delocalized bonding.
