Distinguished Seminar Series with Antonios Alvertis (Click for More Information)

 

Wednesday, March 11, 2026
1:00 pm - 2:00 pm

Location: EER 3.640

Antonios Alvertis, a current Assistant Professor in Physics at The University of Texas at Austin, builds theoretical models to better understand the physics of condensed matter. His models often rely on the power of supercomputers and quantum computers to properly model interactions of electrons, photons, and vibrating atoms. His past work has led to minimizing energy loss in LEDs and better understanding how the nature of electrons can power solar devices. Read his most current journal highlighting monoclinic bismuth vanadate electrons' unique nature here.
