主讲人简介/Biography:

Su-Huai Wei is a Chair Professor and Head of the Materials and Energy Division of the Beijing Computational Science Research Center (CSRC) in China. He received his B.S. in Physics from Fudan University, China, in 1981 and Ph.D. from the College of William and Mary, USA, in 1985. He joined the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) in USA in 1985 and was a Laboratory Fellow and Manager of the Theoretical Materials Science Group before he joined the CSRC in 2015. His research is focused on developing electronic structure theory of semiconductor compounds, alloys and nanostructures for optoelectronic applications. He has published more than 530 papers in leading scientific journals, including 72 in Physical Review Letters with more than 60,000 citations and an H index=123. He is a Fellow of both of the American Physical Society and the Materials Research Society. 

讲座摘要/Abstract:

First-principles study plays an important role in developing novel materials for clean energy applications because it can provide useful physical insights, fresh perspective and new design principles for developing innovative materials with high performance and possibly also low cost. In this talk，I will discuss how the development of theoretical first-principles calculation approaches can be used to better understand and improve the performance of materials such as solar cell materials, thermoelectric materials, hydrogen generation materials, and transparent conducting materials.
