■ Research ■

The subject of my research is the physics of nanostructures - very small, but not quite microscopic, man-made devices. Due to advances in the field of nanotechnology, a large variety of such structures recently has become available. Borderline between the world of macroscopic, classical physics and that of the microscopic quantum world, they exhibit an array of interesting, and previously unexplored, phenomena. Typically these phenomena are electrical in nature, but also the mechanical properties of nano-devices can be non-classical. The goal of my research is to contribute to a theoretical understanding of nanostructures. Often the insights gained from such research can be used to predict new interesting effects or to optimize nano-devices for applications such as quantum computing. The challenge as well as the fascination of the theory of systems on the nanoscale derives from an interplay between quantum coherent effects and many-particle interactions.
