Victor Chang Lee

Email:  victor (dot) changlee (at) yale.edu

Education:

  • PhD, Materials, Imperial College, London, 2021
  • B. Sc., Chemistry, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Spain, 2016

Interests: My research interest is the study of optoelectronic materials for applications in energy and information technologies. I study many-body effects in light-matter interaction at the atomic scale using a wide range of computational techniques based on first principles methods like DFT, many-body perturbation theory, and time-dependent Green’s functions methods.
