Nils Wittemeier is a physicist specializing in solid-state physics and computational modeling. He received his B.Sc. and M.Sc. from RWTH Aachen University and obtained his Ph.D. from the Autonomous University of Barcelona in 2023, where he explored topological materials, quantum transport, and superconductivity. His research combines theoretical and computational approaches to understand novel quantum phenomena at the atomic scale.

 

Beyond fundamental research, Nils has strong background in scientific software development. He has contributed to the development of SIESTA, a widely used density functional theory code, implementing methods to improve simulations of superconductors and solvent effects. His expertise includes programming with a focus on high-performance computing and parallelization techniques.

 

As part of the HANAMI project, Nils works on advancing computational methods for modeling battery materials, helping to bridge the gap between theoretical predictions and real-world applications.
