CRIR, NITER Organized Special Training for Faculties on Density Functional Theory (DFT) - Simulation
On 8
June, 2024 CRIR, NITER hosted a day long successful special training on Density
Functional Theory (DFT)- simulation for the faculties. Renowned scientist and
DFT expert Prof. Dr. Alamgir Kabir, Department of Physics, University of Dhaka
conducted the training. At the beginning he provided valuable insights into the
realm of Quantum Mechanics related to DFT. Then he approached providing hands
on experience on the study of emerging materials in view of electrical,
thermal, mechanical, optical and chemical properties using DFT-simulation
implemented in a Quantum Expresso simulation package. CRIR convener Dr. Md.
Abul Kalam expressed is deepest gratitude to Dr. Alamgir Kabir for his
contribution and thanked the participant faculties. Such training will enhance
the research activities of NITER faculties and CRIR look forward to organizing
more in the near future.
