Condensed Matter Physics

Concerned with the properties of matter in the solid state and the properties of artificial materials.

Problems currently being examined include the electrical transport properties of carbon nanotube ‘quantum wires,’ transport and magnetic properties of thin films of ferromagnets, magnetic properties of materials in non-equilibrium structures, magnetization reversal in nanometer-scale magnets, scanning electron microscopy, high-sensitivity magnetometry, and coherence effects in light-absorption in semiconductors with self-assembled quantum dots.
