Arnold Leigh Ryan Choa from Physics and Astronomy program Dresden – Max Planck Institute for Chemical Physics of Solids
Placement Information Year you started your placement 2017 Placement period May – August, September – December Supervisor’s name Liu Hao Tjeng Project Details Overview Topological insulators have a unique property in that they have metallic conducting surface in spite of an insulating bulk. The over-all goal of my project is to cap a thin film […]
Jacobus Philip Haupt from Physics and Astronomy program Stuttgart – Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research
Placement Information Year you started your placement 2017 Placement period May – August Supervisor’s name Christian Ast Project Details Overview My project involves programming an artificial neural network (in MATLAB) to classify spectra from superconductors which have been collected by means of scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM). If I am successful and in a timely manner, […]

Placement Information Year you started your placement 2017 Placement period May – August, September – December Supervisor’s name Sasha Boris Project Details Overview The Solid State Spectroscopy group, directed by Dr. Bernhard Keimer, at the Max Planck Institute for Solid State Physics studies the physics of strongly correlated electron systems using various spectroscopic experimental methods […]
Hirsh Kamakari from Physics and Astronomy program Stuttgart – Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research
Placement Information Year you started your placement 2017 Placement period May – August, September – December Supervisor’s name Dirk Manske Project Details Overview When a superconductor in its ground state interacts with an ultra short laser pulse, quasiparticles are created resulting in a reduction in the magnitude of the order parameter. If the pulse is […]
Jonathan Zhang from Physics and Astronomy program Stuttgart – Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research
Placement Information Year you started your placement 2017 Placement period May – August, September – December Supervisor’s name Andreas Schnyder Project Details Overview I am using the different symmetries found in crystals to predict degenerate energy levels in their band structure. Project objectives To find degeneracies at high symmetry points using methods such as representation […]
