I perform experimental investigations of electronic transport in devices consisting of graphene and topological insulators. The devices are built using nano-fabrication techniques and are measured at very low temperatuers (300mK) and high magnetic fields.

Research interests: miniature quantum sensors (atomic-clocks, optical magnetometers, E-field sensors), time and frequency, miniature frequency-combs (micro-combs), and the interplay between photonics and atomic-physics. We study interactions among diverse ‘flavors’ of photons and atoms in order to (a) develop novel types of miniature quantum-sensors, and (b) understand light-matter interactions of light and atoms occurring at minuscule dimensions.

With the rise of quantum technologies and the ability to control single atoms, ions and molecules, thermodynamics faces new challenges:

  • What new thermodynamic effects can be observed in the quantum microscopic realm?
  • Can quantum heat machines drastically outperform classical heat machines?
  • Are there additional scale-dependent thermodynamic laws that become important only in small coherent systems?
  • What are the possibilities entailed in microscopic thermal control protocols?
  • How will the next generation of microscopic heat machines look like?
