Abstract
Bio
Andrea Caviglia joined the Department of Quantum Matter Physics at the University of Geneva in January 2022 as a full professor. Previously, his research group was based at Delft University of Technology. His current research programme focuses on synthesizing and investigating condensed matter systems with exceptional electronic properties, achieved through material design at the atomic scale. The programme centres on two key themes: oxide interface physics and controlling quantum materials with light. The team has made contributions to the field of quantum materials design, including advancements in light-induced magnetism, ultrafast strain engineering, nanoscale electrostatic control of superconductivity and exploration of topological correlated materials.
