Halil İbrahim Sözen

Dr.-Ing. Halil İbrahim Sözen is a postdoctoral researcher in the Theoretical Chemistry - Klüner Group at the Institute of Chemistry, Carl von Ossietzky University of Oldenburg, Germany. His work focuses on computational materials science, particularly using ab initio methods to study magnetic materials, electrocatalysts, and defect mechanisms in alloys.

• Research Focus: First-principles modeling, phase stability, magnetic properties, electrocatalysis
• Key Techniques: Density Functional Theory (DFT), Ab initio thermodynamics, defect energetics

Selected Publications highlight his contributions to understanding Fe2P-based magnets, rare-earth-lean hard magnets, and defect-driven diffusion in Fe-Al systems. His collaborative work bridges theoretical predictions with experimental validation.
