Prakashan Korambath, Ph.D.

Consultant for Q-Chem, Inc.

Prakashan Korambath, Ph.D. Staff Scientist, Q-Chem Inc., received his Ph.D in chemistry from University of Memphis, Memphis, TN. His dissertaion work was on the implementation of a time dependent Hartree Fock (TDHF) code to compute the polarizabilities and hyperpolarizabilites in the MOPAC and the GAMESS (US) quantum chemistry program packages. Dr. Korambath was awarded an NSF Postdoctoral Fellowship at The Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio to develop a parallel sparse matrix vector eigenvalue solver program for the calculation of rovibrational eigenvalues of van der Waals molecules using the ARPACK software. Dr. Korambath has also served as a Software Engineer, at Electronic Data Systems (EDS) Corporation. Dr.Korambath was an NRC Associate at the United States Air Force Research Laboratory where he modelled radiation induced defects in semiconductors. At Q-Chem Inc., Dr. Korambath is involved in the implementation of parallel analytical second derivative calculation code in Q-Chem. He is also involved in porting Q-Chem to different platforms and improving the performance of Q-Chem.
