معرفی
Professor Thomas la Cour Jansen is a computational spectroscopist at the Zernike Institute for Advanced Materials, University of Groningen, leading research on quantum dynamics in complex molecular systems.
- Key affiliations: Berendsen Center for Multiscale Modeling, PhotoCaM doctoral network
- Research spans photophysical properties of advanced materials, exciton dynamics in light-harvesting systems, and protein structure-function relationships
Research Interests focus on unraveling quantum-mechanical aspects of energy transport in molecular aggregates, interpreting nonlinear spectroscopies (2D-IR, 2D-Electronic), and multiscale modeling of materials from perovskite solar cells to photosynthetic complexes. His work bridges theoretical quantum physics with experimental validation, emphasizing coherence effects and structural disorder.
Recent Publications highlight breakthroughs in measuring exciton delocalization, controlling charge-transfer dynamics with tailored pulses, and resolving structural debates in synthetic light-harvesting complexes through polarization-controlled spectroscopy. The group employs techniques like molecular dynamics, quantum-classical simulations, and stochastic methods to decode notoriously complex spectral signals.
Scientific Software developed by the team (available on GitHub) enables advanced spectral simulations and analysis of quantum systems.
