Single crystal growth of correlated intermetallic compounds with strong electron-lattice coupling (A03)

Subject Area Experimental Condensed Matter Physics
Term since 2020
Project identifier Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 422213477
 

Project Description

The project will grow and characterize intermetallic compounds to study collective phenomena where both lattice and electronic degrees of freedom are involved. The project aims to provide single crystals of highest possible quality. In addition, an explorative growth of new correlated flat-band materials in systems with two-dimensional Kagome structural motives will be performed as well as a search for intermetallic materials showing altermagnetic order.
