Åbningstider [https://www.matkant.dk/info/aabningstider/]: Holder åbent mandag til fredag kl 09:30–13:30 Med følgende afvigelser: Lukket i uge 15 (11. til 13. april). Sommerlukket i perioden 27. juni til og med 19. august 2022. Lukket i uge 42 (17. til 21. oktober 2022). Postdoc Subhadip Das, starter i Yong P. Chen´s gruppe “Subhadip Das joins the research group of Profs. Yong P. Chen and Richard Balog as a postdoctoral fellow at their Laboratory of Quantum Materials and Quantum Measurements (LQ2M2) and Villum Centre for Hybrid Quantum Materials and Devices (HQDM) and the Department of Physics and Astronomy in February 2022.” “Subhadip will work on novel 2D materials and hybrids using optical Raman/IR spectroscopy in combination of electronic transport and scanning probe microscopy. Prior to joining Aarhus University, Subhadip recently completed his Ph.D. from the Indian Institute of Science, Bengaluru, and he completed his master's from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur with an emphasis on superconducting magnetic penetration depth measurement. Being an experimental condensed matter physicist, his past research has focused on the interaction between electrons and phonons in two-dimensional materials such as MoTe2, ReS2, and FePS3. He has extensive experience in Raman spectroscopy, device fabrication techniques, characterization methods, and high pressure and low-temperature systems.” “In his free time, Subhadip likes to pencil sketch portraits, play table tennis, and cook now and then.” Standardferie på IFA Vi minder om standardferieperioderne på IFA.

This approach promises complete freedom to design new components for electronics and optics that not only inherit the qualities of the fundamental building blocks but evolve into something much more unique. The dream of such LEGO-style quantum materials design has come true with the possibilities to isolate and arbitrarily stack atomically thin crystals, so-called two-dimensional (2D) materials. Here, I will briefly outline the evolution of the field of 2D materials since the discovery of graphene and discuss how these materials may realize new forms of electronics such as twistronics. I will show how the quantum states of operating devices based on 2D materials will be directly visualized using synchrotron radiation focused to the nanoscale at a new beamline at ASTRID2. Finally, I will present future opportunities for strategic materials design at the fundamental level of quantum mechanics using this beamline facility.

Therefore, to understand how life originated, we need to understand how the first biomolecule building blocks formed. In this seminar, we will follow the prebiotic chemistry from star- and planet-forming regions to the planets and moons in our Solar System. With laboratory experiments and radio telescope observations, we will unravel the formation of some of these prebiotic molecules in space. We will see that star-forming regions are teeming with a large variety of prebiotic molecules and that many of these species are formed in the ice mantles of interstellar dust grains. The journey is continued to the Solar System, where we want to know if prebiotic molecules are present in the ice of Europa - a moon of Jupiter - or in the atmosphere of Venus, to help understand if these objects are habitable or perhaps even harbor life. For this purpose, we constructed the ORIGIN instrument, a Laser Desorption Mass Spectrometer for space exploration missions that can detect trace amounts of amino acids, lipids, and Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs). We will look at how this instruments operates and how it is implemented in space missions.

Benyt ikke kodeord som let kan gættes. Benyt forskellige kodeord til forskellige systemer. Beskyt altid dine kodeord. Luk ned, lås, log af din computer før du forlader den uden at være tilstede. Sørg for at der kræves kodeord for at starte den op eller genaktivere den. Installer eller download ikke ukendte programmer eller data. Undgå browsing og læsning af e-mails på computere der kører ældre OS versioner eller på systemer der ikke er fuldt opdaterede/antivirus beskyttede. Minmer browsing og læsning af e-mails på computere der er tilknyttet et laboratorie-netværk. Information om COVID-19 De nyeste retningslinjer er altid opdaterede på dette link: [https://medarbejdere.au.dk/corona/] Her står der bl.a., at du opfordres du til at arbejde hjemme, såfremt du har mulighed for det. Ved tvivl kontakt venligst nærmeste leder. Der er nu igen et krav bære mundbind/visir på AU, for studerende og medarbejdere, når de færdes indendørs på universitetets lokaliteter. Det gælder på alle fællesarealer. Dog kan man tage mundbind af, når man sidder ned, ved eksamen og undervisning. Derudover er det nuværende krav om coronapas forlænget med 4 uger.
