I am working on a project to simulate the electronic structure of perovskite-derived AMn₇O₁₂ compounds to better understand the charge-ordering (CO) phenomenon and the consequent changes in the electrical resistivity. In particular, I'm focusing on how varying the compound composition can possibly strengthen the charge-ordering at higher temperatures so that electrical signals can be better controlled thermally for applications in computing industry.
