Chair of Experimental Solid State Physics - Quantum Materials

Chair Prof. Dr. Efetov

Our group uses innovative nano-fabrication techniques to create novel designer materials made by vertical stacking and twisting of various 2D materials. The shear infinite number of material combinations and twist-angles allows to engineer exotic quantum systems with an unprecedented level of control and tunability. We study these complex electronic states with a combination of electrical, optical and thermal measurements, and employ these to provide new types of hybrid devices for quantum sensing applications.
