Senior🎓
Top SchoolRickard Armiento is an associate professor and head of the Materials Design and Informatics unit at Linköping University with over a decade of experience in computational physics and materials science. He develops and applies density functional theory methods, new exchange-correlation functionals, automated high-throughput workflows, and machine-learning models to tackle problems in piezoelectrics, photovoltaics, thermoelectrics, defects, and 2D materials. His work bridges deep method development with practical large-scale supercomputer campaigns and data-mining, enabling both predictive materials screening and reproducible software-driven research. A seasoned postdoc alumni of MIT and University of Bayreuth with a PhD from KTH, he combines academic rigor with production-oriented tooling—often focusing on automation and reproducibility that few method developers emphasize.
