Atomic scale optoelectronic control of van der Waals quantum materials

Description of the granted funding

In this project, we will develop new experimental and theoretical techniques to study the optoelectronic properties of two-dimensional materials at the atomic scale. We will in particular focus on probing nanoscopic magnetic and optical landscapes in so-called moiré heterostructures. This will allow creating materials with completely new magnetic or optoelectronic properties. This project will for the first time probe how these properties vary at the atomic scale, and result in a detailed understanding necessary for harnessing these effects in novel applications.
