The COMputational nanoelectronICS (COMICS) research group is part of the Nanoelectronic Department at the Center for Nanosciences and Nanotechnologies (C2N), a laboratory jointly operated by the CNRS, Paris-Saclay University and Paris-Cité University, and located on the Paris-Saclay campus at Palaiseau.

We exploit theoretical and computational physics tools to investigate electronic, thermal and trasport properties of materials and devices. More precisely, our skills include:

• Physics of nanodevices: out-of-equilibrium transport and quantum effects;
• Development of modelling tools: particle Monte Carlo simulator, band structures, atomistic Non Equilibrium Gree Function simulator;
• Materials modelling: structural, electronic, optical and transport properties of nanostructures via first principles or semi-empirical methods;
• Charge-density waves and anharmonic phonon-phonon interactions;
