My research focuses on radiation damage in materials for nuclear energy applications. My two primary foci are the behavior of complex oxides under irradiation and the role of interfaces to mitigate radiation damage evolution, with the goal of using nano materials to develop radiation tolerant materials. I use computational simulations to study the atomistic behavior of materials under irradiation, focusing on kinetic aspects of defect evolution using methods such as accelerated molecular dynamics. I also use higher level models to understand the effects of defect kinetics on longer-time observables, primarily methods such as rate theory and kinetic Monte Carlo.
