מחקר

מחקר ניסיוני של תכונות חשמליות של מערכות נמוכי מימד ומערכות ננו, תוך התמקדות בחומרים על-מוליכים או מגנטיים. המערכות הנחקרות כוללות שכבות אולטרה-דקות, ננו-תיילים, נקודות קוונטיות, צמתי מינהור וננו-חלקיקים. המחקרים השונים עוסקים בהשפעה של הגיאומטריה, הגודל ואי הסדר על התכונות החשמליות והמגנטיות של מערכות אלו.
