Theoretical Physics of Matter
Within theoretical physics of matter, several research lines investigate fundamental physical aspects as well as connections with experiments and applications. The main subject areas include solid-state physics (electronic systems, optical and transport properties), nanostructures (low-dimensional systems like quantum wells and superlattices, quantum wires and quantum dots), spin systems, photonic nanostructures like photonic crystals and nanocavities, classical and quantum optics, quantum information.
