Layered Quantum Systems
The banner image shows an atomically resolved STM topography of an assembled van der Waals heterostructure.
About
Van der Waals heterostructures enable the engineering of exotic quantum states by proximity effects. We use cutting-edge techniques for the fabrication of ultraclean heterostructures - a crucial requirement to study their properties with our state-of-the-art scanning probe microscopes.
