Symmetry and correlation in the electronic structure of epitaxial topological insulators (A01)

The focus of this project lies of on band structure measurements by angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) including dichroic effects in the excitation process and spin-resolved detection at different photon energies. The scientific goal is to understand the complex interplay of correlations, topology and magnetism, particularly in thin films and multilayer structures.
