  • Perovskite (15.90%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Ab initio (15.64%)
  • Condensed matter physics (32.82%)
  • Thermodynamics (30.26%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:

Renata M. Wentzcovitch mainly investigates Ab initio, Condensed matter physics, Thermodynamics, Crystallography and Perovskite. Renata M. Wentzcovitch combines subjects such as Chemical physics and Forsterite with her study of Ab initio. Her Condensed matter physics study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Mineral physics and Energy.

Her Thermodynamics research integrates issues from Lattice dynamics, Diopside and Monoclinic crystal system. Her work deals with themes such as Post-perovskite and Ternary operation, which intersect with Crystallography. As part of one scientific family, Renata M. Wentzcovitch deals mainly with the area of Perovskite, narrowing it down to issues related to the Thermal conductivity, and often Mantle.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Mass-dependent dynamics of terrestrial exoplanets using ab initio mineral properties (12 citations)
  • Importance of van der Waals interaction on structural, vibrational, and thermodynamic properties of NaCl (12 citations)
