J. A. Jaszczak - Research Interests
Computational condensed matter physics
Professor Jaszczak's research focuses on theory and computer
modeling of materials. His group is currently collaborating with
experimental groups in both departments of Physics and Electrical
and computer engineering to model the electron transport in
multi-island tunnel junction devices.
Prior research has focused on materials with interfaces, such as surfaces,
grain boundaries or interphase boundaries play an important
role. He uses various simulation methods such as Monte Carlo
and molecular dynamics, as well as numerical and analytical
techniques.
Dr. Jaszczak has interests which include electon tunneling devices,
elastic properties of superlattices, phase transitions at surfaces,
crystal shapes, crystal growth and etching, and nanotechnology education.
