Correlated quantum matter and unusual transport phenomena.
Contacts: Anne ANTHORE, Frédéric PIERRE
The lab Quantum Physics in Circuit explores quantum phenomena in nano-scale electronic circuits, from correlated electronic matter to quantum transport across elementary conduction channels.
April 2022: A post-doctoral position has just been opened in the QPC lab. We are seeking applications from dynamic young scientists, see Opportunities. Update May 24: the position remains open!
April 2022: The CNRS silver medal was awarded to Frédéric Pierre. This distinction rewards a team work. Congratulations to all!
February 2022: Our post-doc Olivier Maillet has obtained a much coveted, permanent research position in the Nanoelectronics group at CEA-Saclay. A life changing news, congratulations to you Olivier!
October 2021: Welcome to our new PhD student Colin Piquard!
July 2021: Starting date of the ERC synergy project Quantropy with our partners from Canada, Israel and Switzerland!
May 2021: Congratulation to Anne Anthore for her Professor promotion!
May 2021: What is the conductance of a quantum conductor connected to circuit nodes at different temperatures? Our investigation on a single quantum channel submitted to a temperature difference has just been published in Physical Review Research. It also includes theoretical advances for near ballistic channels and numerous useful analytical expressions.
March 2021: Congratulation Olivier for your successful application to the presitigious Marie Curie cofund Paris Region postdoc fellowship!
December 2020: Congratulation Hadrien for your PhD defense and best wishes of success for your postdoc at Zurich.
November 2020: The Quantropy ERC synergy project is founded! The project is together with our partners at ETH (Zurich), UBC (Vancouver), BGU (Neguev) and Tel Aviv University. It will start next July for 6 years.
