Markovic Lab: Quantum Transport at Johns Hopkins University

Our group investigates electron transport in low dimensional systems. The behavior of electrons in low dimensions is inherently dominated by quantum effects and correlations between electrons, leading to a host of unusual properties, fascinating new states of matter and novel application possibilities. Our current projects involve thin films of metals, nanowires, carbon nanotubes, quantum dots, graphene, topological insulators and organic semiconductors. The experimental techniques include low-noise electrical measurements at temperatures down to 7mK and magnetic fields of up to 10T, scanning probe microscopy and state-of-the-art nanofabrication.
