The project CHOPIN (atomistiC approacHes for plasmOnic Photo Induced phenomeNa), led by Tommaso Giovannini, researcher in Theoretical Condensed Matter Physics at our Department, has been awarded an ERC Starting Grant 2025 by the European Research Council (ERC), with funding of approximately €1.4 million.
CHOPIN aims to develop new theoretical models to understand how light interacts with nanostructures and molecules at the atomic level, and how these processes can be harnessed to achieve more efficient and sustainable chemical reactions.
