Biography
Professor Amir Karton leads the quantum chemistry group at the School of Science and Technology at the University of New England (Web: www.chemtheorist.com; Twitter: @CompQuantumChem). The research in Prof. Karton’s group is highly interdisciplinary and lies at the interface of materials, biology, physics, and chemistry. His group develops quantum chemical theories to calculate highly accurate chemical properties and then applies these theories to problems of chemical structure, mechanism, and design. Prof. Karton’s applied studies range from nanochemistry to biochemistry. Including the computational design of super-thin, 2D functional materials for energy storage, molecular separation, and green catalysis applications, the computational design of small bioactive molecules, and highly accurate simulations of atmospheric and astrochemical reactions. His research group employs a range of computational techniques including machine-learning force fields, density functional theory, and ab initio quantum chemical methods. At UNE, Prof. Karton's research is focused on developing nanotechnology solutions for energy conversion and storage. This research is well-aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal of affordable and clean energy, ensuring access to energy for all. Prof. Karton’s research has been recognized by the Royal Australian Chemical Institute (RACI) Citation Award (2021), American Chemical Society (ACS) PHYS Division Lectureship Award (2020), RACI Physical Chemistry Lectureship (2019), and Le Fèvre Medal from the Australian Academy of Science (2018).
