About

Kjartan Thor Wikfeldt applies computational modeling to investigate the physical and chemical properties of solids, liquids and interfaces. He is particularly interested in molecular-level properties of liquid and solid water such as the structure and dynamics of water's hydrogen-bonding network.

Recently, Kjartan Thor has been investigating nuclear quantum effects in different materials, in particular the tunneling of hydrogen atoms on metal surfaces and in hydrogen-bonded ferroelectric crystals.
