معرفی
Dr. Toni Maier is a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute of Physical and Theoretical Chemistry within the Faculty of Life Sciences at the Technical University of Braunschweig. His academic career spans institutions in Germany, Japan, and the United States, with expertise in quantum chemistry, density functional theory (DFT), and relativistic effects in electronic structure calculations.
- PhD in Chemistry from Technical University of Berlin (2012–2016)
- Diploma in Chemistry from Humboldt University of Berlin (2007–2012)
Dr. Maier's research focuses on the development of exchange-correlation functionals in DFT, including local and range-separated hybrid functionals, and their application to electronic and vibronic spectra. He also specializes in relativistic quantum chemistry, particularly within exact two-component theory, and the optimization of computational methods like integral screening and semi-numerical integration.
His publications highlight advancements in local hybrid functionals for time-dependent DFT (TDDFT), relativistic DFT, and the theoretical characterization of chemical systems. Recent work includes protocols for screening singlet fission chromophores.
- Feodor Lynen Return Fellowship (2019–2020)
- JSPS Postdoctoral Fellowship (2017–2019)
- Elsa-Neumann Scholarship (2013–2016)
Dr. Maier's collaborations with Prof. Martin Kaupp, Prof. Hiromi Nakai, and Prof. Christoph Jacob have driven innovations in quantum chemical program development and theoretical modeling of electronic properties.
