Research
The group of the Physics of Two Dimensional Structures specializes in the study of two-dimensional semiconductor structures, particularly van der Waals structures of layered materials. Our research includes both the fabrication of van der Waals structures and their investigation using advanced optical spectroscopy methods such as micro-photoluminescence, micro-photoluminescence excitation, micro-photoluminescence up-conversion, reflection contrast, transmission and micro-Raman scattering over a wide temperature range from 7 to 300 K. In addition, we characterize the surface and thickness of materials using atomic force microscopy.
The main goal of our research is to understand the many-body effects in condensed matter related to both the charge and spin of carriers, which includes studying electron-electron and electron-phonon interactions. Using various experimental techniques and aided by theoretical calculations we aim to get deeper inside into fundamental properties of condensed matter.
