Research summary
Our current research activities involve investigating electron transport in low-dimensional semiconductors nanostructures based on GaAs at ultra-low temperatures and high magnetic field.
We investigate quantum many-body effects in condensed matter systems for discovering new fundamental quantum physics and harnessing them for future quantum technologies.
Some of the major, current activities:
1. Engineering electron wavefunction in low-dimensions (1D) for spintronics applications
2. Self-organised charge fractionlisation of electrons in the 1D-2D regime
3. Wigner Crystallisation of electrons in low-dimensions
4. Spin-orbit interactions
Other research interests:
1. Light matter interactions
2. Self assembly of molecules
3. Quantum transport through single molecules and self-assembled nano structures (nanoparticles, nanowires, nanotubes, etc.)
Teaching summary
Research projects for MSc, MSci, MEng, and final year BEng and MEng students are currently available.
Supervision of 1) BEng/MEng, 2) MSc Nanotechnology, 3) MSc Physics, 4) MSc Quantum Technologies Research projects.
