Dynamics of Quantum matter

We explore non-equilibrium many-body dynamics in quantum systems that experience symmetry-breaking, topological, or jamming transitions. These systems encompass superconductors, charge-density wave, and magnetic materials.

Experimental Soft Matter Physics

The research is conducted within the “Light and Matter” research program. The interaction of light with matter is one of the most important fields of physics and optical processes are indispensable in many branches of modern industry.

Synthesis of new materials

Top-grade experimental research is possible only with top-grade samples. We are proud to have a team of experts who are dedicated to the synthesis of various materials with precision and care, including high-quality crystals such as transition metal chalcogenides. Our team is always happy to collaborate with other researchers and institutions to further our understanding of complex matter.
