Eric Lindgen’s PhD Story

Colour is everywhere - in autumn leaves, glowing screens, and solar panels. But what is actually happening at the atomic level inside the molecules that produce it? Eric's PhD project tackled this question by combining machine learning with atomistic simulations, making it possible to model these systems with quantum-level accuracy at realistic scales. Neutron scattering provided the experimental grounding, and the work resulted in new tools that bring simulation and experiment closer together than ever before.
