Transport at Nanoscale Interfaces Laboratory
Our interdisciplinary team gathers physicists, materials scientists, (bio-) chemists, and engineers focusing on bringing novel materials to devices. We are interested in understanding the fundamental electronic, optoelectronic, thermal and ionic transport processes involved in atomically-precise nanostructures and low-dimensional materials. The heterogeneous integration of novel nanomaterials requires custom-made methods for nanoscale patterning and interfaces nanostructuring. Overall, we strive to master the chain of competences leading from designer materials with tailored quantum properties to devices with targeted application in information & quantum technology, energy conversion & storage as well as biochemical sensing & diagnostics.

Technical Expertise
Mar 01, 2025 Welcome, Michela!
We are pleased to welcome Michela Weber, an MSc. student from ETH Zurich, who will be joining us from 1. March to 31. August for her master’s project. Michaela will be investigating red blood cells after radioligand therapy using atomic force microscopy, a fascinating and impactful research topic at the intersection of medicine and nanotechnology. We look forward to her contributions!
