Profiles of Division Researchers
This section presents profiles of the Division Researchers who adopted in research at CMSI between September 1, 2011 and February 29, 2012.
Tsutomu Kawatsu Molecular Science Division Researcher Fukui Institute for Fundamental Chemistry Kyoto University Majored in theory of the biophysical chemistry at the Nagoya University and received a Doctorate of Science. Currently pursuing a research into bridge-mediated excitation energy transfer at Fukui Institute for Fundamental Chemistry, Kyoto University. Motivation for applying for the posion Accurate, large-scale sampling is needed for numerical calculations in natural science. I wanted to obtain techniques for using large-scale parallel computers for this purpose. Mission / Role My mission and role is to increase the speed of the gradient calculations used in first-principles molecular dynamics for the path integral approach, and to pursue development relating calculations in order to conduct high-efficiency sampling using first-principles molecular dynamics. Ambition My goal is to establish a sampling simulation method that can treat quantum chemical properties in a statistical manner, while achieving a balance between speed and accuracy. |
Guo Zhi-Xin Condensed Matter Physics Division Researcher Department of Applied Physics, The University of Tokyo Majored in computational physics at Fudan University in China for my Ph.D degree. Engaged research into the application and development the Real-Space DFT code. Motivation for applying for the posion I wanted to expand my research field from the thermal conductance to the electronic conductance, and also expand the research method from the classical molecular dynamics to the first principles. Mission / Role To calculate the electronic structure of C/Si materials in use of the Real-Space DFT code, and also make some contribution on the development of Real-Space DFT. Ambition My ambition is to develop an efficient code for conductance calculations and apply it to obtain new results for transport properties of nanometerscale devices, and also to make many friends in Japan. |
Truong Vinh Truong Duy Condensed Matter Physics Division Researcher Research Center for Integrated Science, Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (JAIST) Majored in Information Science at Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology and received his Ph.D. (Information Science). Engaged in research into High Performance Computing and Green, Grid, Cloud Computing Technologies at Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology. Country of Origin: Hochiminh City, Vietnam. Motivation for applying for the posion I wished to apply my skills of information science to computational materials science in an interdisciplinary research project. Mission / Role To develop efficient petascale hybrid parallelization of extreme-scale applications for fully exploiting state-of-the-art supercomputers. Ambition I wish to become a good role model in interdisciplinary research that crosses traditional boundaries between Information Science to Computational Materials Science. |
