Kickin’ off the International Conference on Thermoelectrics 🎺 #ICT2024 #Krakow

[Michael Toriyama @MichaelToriyama]

@prashungorai Thanks @prashungorai! You’ve been a fantastic mentor and a friend!

[Michael Toriyama @MichaelToriyama]

Happy to share that our work on topological insulators has been featured in the 2024 Materials Horizons 🔥 Papers collection! Check it out: https://t.co/QLZADXkUHK

Experimental attempts to reproduce the #LK99 claims raised questions about composition, off-stoichiometry, Cu doping etc. Using defect calcs., @MichaelToriyama @ChengWeiLee2 provide useful insights in this
@ACSEnergyLett paper. #compchem

[Hautier research group @hautiergroup]

Quantum defects in silicon are hard to find. We are looking for them using high-throughput computational screening. Just out in @ScienceAdvances. Collaboration with @sineatrix @alpsipahigil led by Yihuang Xiong https://t.co/04UEU1iINB

[Prashun Gorai @prashungorai]

Experimental attempts to reproduce the #LK99 claims raised questions about the composition, off-stoichiometry, Cu doping etc. We're always thinking about phase stability/defects, so it piqued our interest. See what @MichaelToriyama @ChengWeiLee2 found...

VTAnDeM offers an interactive GUI for exploring the stability - defect - carrier concentration phase space. Check it out!

[Michael Toriyama @MichaelToriyama]

Excited to share VTAnDeM, a software for streamlining defect thermodynamic analysis in materials. In collaboration with the Ertekin group at @UofIResearch.

We achieve p-type AgBiSe2 by (1) Se vapor annealing to suppress native donor-like antisites and (2) alloying with SnSe. Fruitful collaboration with Hanhwi Jang

Grants 😞
Manuscripts 😣
Course evaluations 😫

Rejection is everywhere in academia.

But we keep it quiet.
Only stories of success get told.

So heres a story on rejection:

[ScienceInsider @ScienceInsider]

BREAKING: White House issues new policy that will require, by 2026, all federally-funded research results to be freely available to public without delay, ending longstanding ability of journals to paywall results for up to 1 year. Coverage coming on @ScienceInsider.

[Prashun Gorai @prashungorai]

Bipolar conduction effects can't be neglected in narrow-gap semiconductors and semimetals. @MichaelToriyama masterfully derived simple descriptors to predict TE performance in such materials. A collaboration w/ @SnyderGroupNU

[Ivan Contreras @IvanGContreras]

Today in the International Seminar of Differential Geometry and Mathematical Physics we'll have @MichaelToriyama, who will tell us about Density Functional Theory, Perturbation Theory and applications in material science/physics. See you all soon!
