Sidhuvud Material Physics

The world is made of materials

our quest is to explore it.

The exploration of dimensionality aspects of phase transitions as well as all advanced production of devices requires good knowledge of materials. That knowledge is our mission.

The cornerstone of the activity at Materials Physics is the solid integration of research, educational and outreaching efforts. Educational efforts range from introduction level to post graduate studies, covering many aspects of modern physics.


 

 

Our scientific competence is based on the production and analysis of modern materials. Research activities range from in-house material synthesis and investigation to the utilization of large international facilities, with the quest of exploring the inherent properties of natural as well as man-made materials.
