In our lab we study low-dimensional, topological and many-body effects and phases in nanoscale materials and devices using combinations of electrical transport, optics, scanning probes, photoemission, and other techniques.
"Every important discovery in science is by definition unpredictable. If it were predictable, it would not be an important discovery. The purpose of science is to create opportunities for unpredictable things to happen. When nature does something unexpected, we learn something about how nature works."
- Freeman Dyson, in From Eros to Gai
