LOW CARBON ENERGY CONVERSION
The advancement of quantum materials has opened new frontiers in information processing, energy-efficient computing, and quantum technologies. The MSE department has established strong expertise in this field, focusing on novel 2D materials, van der Waals heterostructures, quantum dots, and superconducting circuits. Our researchers investigate fundamental quantum properties—such as spin and valley degrees of freedom—and leverage them for innovative applications in (opto)electronics, spintronics and quantum computing. Through state-of-the-art fabrication, and low-temperature electrical and optical characterizations, we have made significant contributions to the fundamental understanding of quantum matter. Additionally, our work extends to device integration and the development of novel quantum information processing architectures, laying the foundation for future technological breakthroughs.
