Hadn’t it been cancelled you could have met us at the APS march meeting in Denver and learned more about our research. Members of the group had the following contributions:

• Monday, March 2, 2020, 14:42–14:54: Carolina Marques: “Density wave at the reconstructed surface of Sr₂RuO₄ and implications for quantum criticality” in Mile High Ballroom 2C
• Monday, March 2, 2020, 16:18–16:30: Chi-Ming Yim: “Quasi-particle interference and confinement effects in a correlated Rashba spin-orbit split 2D electron gas” in Mile High Ballroom 2B
• Monday, March 2, 2020, 16:54–17:06: Soumendra Panja: “Emergent electronic properties of FeTe by strain tuning” in Mile High Ballroom 4B
• Tuesday, March 3, 2020, 9:12–9:24: Luke Rhodes: “k_z selective scattering within Quasiparticle Interference measurements of FeSe” in Mile High Ballroom 4B

We will aim to put videos of the talks online once everyone has safely returned, so stay tuned!

Just back from 3 days of talks and discussions of the latest research in the CDQM.

Congratulations to Luke Rhodes, who was awarded an 1851 Fellowship to apply advanced spectroscopic methods to study quantum materials and unconventional superconductors subjected to strain.

We will host the CMQM (Condensed Matter and Quantum Materials) meeting 2019 at the School of Physics and Astronomy, organized by the IOP. Through the CMQM conference we wish to provide a forum for the wider UK Condensed Matter Physics community to meet for discussions and to present their research across the specialised disciplines. The conference is supported by a wide range of relevant Institute of Physics groups and we envision it to be the first of an annual series, which we hope will rapidly become established as a platform for the community to come together in the spirit of the former CMMP meetings.

The meeting will take place 3-5 July 2019 in St Andrews, featuring plenary talks by Jacqueline Bloch, Andre Geim, Laura Heyderman, Steve Simon, and Julie Staunton, invited talks in specialized sessions and a poster session.

A new way to engineer 1D surface states through kinetic stabilization. Never heard of this? – Read our paper at http://goo.gl/d9VPBr.

The 2019 recruitment round for PhD positions has started!

PhD positions are available through a number of routes, including through the School of Physics and Astronomy and the International Max Planck Research School.
Our group works on development of cutting edge instrumentation for atomic scale studies of electronic structure, complex magnetic orders and unconventional superconductivity. The experiments are undertaken in ultra-low vibration labs.

We have recently launched a series of videos which explain our research. If you would like to learn more, please take a look at our YouTube channel. One of the videos is specifically about Scanning Tunneling Microscopy.

Our new center of designer quantum materials is featured on BBC today, see "Building the future one atom at a time" and in radio on “Good Morning Scotland”.
