Correlated Quantum Materials & Solid State Quantum Systems / People

Team

The team of the SFB Q-M&S consists of the projects part leaders (PIs of P1-P11), the PhD students and postdocs hired by the SFB Q-M&S, the associated reasearchers employed by the host institutions as well as the administrative coordinator.

Bodies

  • The consortium of the SFB Q-M&S consists of the coordinator (PI of P1) and ten leaders of scientific projects parts (PIs of P2-P11).
  • The executive board (EB) consists of all project part leaders (PIs of P1-P11) and one representative each of the PhD students and the postdocs hired by the SFB Q-M&S.
  • The international advisory board (IAB) consists of five internationally renowned scientists elected by the EB.

Task forces

The SFB Q-M&S has three task forces:

  • Training & Outreach lead by Maksym Serbyn (P11, ISTA)
  • Gender & Work-Life Balance lead by Kimberly Modic (P8, ISTA)
  • Open Access & Responsible Research lead by Fakher Assaad (P3, Univ. Würzburg)

Scientific thrusts

We have identified three focus areas in quantum materials – quantum criticality, correlation-driven topology, and unconventional superconductivity – that relate to three topics highly pertinent to quantum computation and information: entanglement, topological protection, and Majorana bound states. They define three scientifc thrusts of the SFB Q-M&S:

  • Thrust 1: Quantum criticality and entanglement lead by Karsten Held (P5, TU Wien)
  • Thrust 2: Correlated topology and topological protection lead by Andrew Higginbotham (P6, ISTA) until January 2024 and afterwards by Fakher Assaad (P3, Univ. Würzburg)
  • Thrust 3: Unconventional superconductivity and Majorana bound states lead by Georgios Katsaros (P7, ISTA)
