Ivan MARRI

Ivan MARRI is an Associate Professor at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, affiliated with the Department of Engineering Sciences and Methods. His research focuses on theoretical physics, materials science, and computational chemistry, with a strong emphasis on nanocrystals and low-dimensional systems. He investigates the electronic and optical properties of silicon, germanium, and their alloys, exploring applications in photovoltaics and optoelectronics. His work leverages ab initio calculations and density functional theory to study quantum confinement effects, carrier dynamics, and surface chemistry.

Dr. Marri teaches courses in High Performance Computing for Advanced Physical Analysis, Physics II, and Physics of Bodies, emphasizing numerical methods, parallel computing, and fundamental physics principles. His research spans topics such as carrier multiplication in silicon nanocrystals, strain effects in GeSi core-shell systems, and work function modulation in semiconductor surfaces.

His publications highlight contributions to understanding nanocrystal interactions, exciton dynamics, and the role of surface functionalization in material properties. While no specific awards are listed, his extensive body of work reflects a deep engagement with theoretical and computational materials science.
