Theoretical chemist with interests in molecular nonlinear optics and properties of confined molecules.
Professor Wojciech Bartkowiak joined the Faculty of Chemistry at the Wroclaw University of Science and Technology in 1998 where he is now a Full Professor and the leader of the Department of Physical and Quantum Chemistry (formerly Theoretical Chemistry Group). He co-authored over 120 scientific publications and book chapters. His research focuses on electronic and vibrational structure theory of organic molecules with a special emphasis on multiphoton absorption and the influence of external confinement on molecular properties.
