Description:
Dr. Ludovica Zullo is a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Würzburg, expert in cutting-edge realistic material simulations using Density Functional Theory (DFT). Her primary research focuses on the fundamental physics of 2D and low-dimensional systems, exploring their electronic, vibrational, and optical properties. She investigates complex heterostructures, unveiling novel quantum phenomena that emerge at the nanoscale, with potential applications in future devices, in tight collaboration with several international experimental teams.
