students are welcome to our lab. We encourage you to contact us if you
wish to carry out an experimental or theoretical research in
superconductivity or, more generally, in solid-state physics. PhD theses of international level can stem from any of our research activities. Moreover, thanks to the very long list of international collaborations of the group, it will be easy to arrange a stay abroad for the students who like this possibility. Possible fields of experimental research: - Fundamental study of unconventional superconductors - Field-effect experiments in various materials Possible fields of theoretical research: - Eliashberg theory of superconductivity - Multiband model for transport in unconventional materials - ab-initio calculations of electronic bandstructures |
