Dr. Marcin Matusiak is a physicist interested in studies of topologically non-trivial systems, unconventional superconductors and other materials, which electronic systems are strongly correlated. The center of his interest are electrical and heat transport phenomena that occurs in a magnetic field. He has built his experience during stays at the University of Florida in Gainesville, USA, the University of Cambridge, UK, the University of Sherbrooke, Canada and also at the Institute of Low Temperature and Structure Research PAS in Wroclaw, Poland.

THE SCOPE OF THE RESEARCH

The Weyl group is oriented towards experimental investigations of topological materials. The expertise of the team members ranges from single crystal growth techniques, to the unique material characterisation methods, but the main goal of the team is to study the unusual transport properties of topological systems. The flow of the electrical and thermal currents in the presence of a magnetic field results in a wealth of physical phenomena. The analysis of their mutual relations requires the highest proficiency, but allows one to draw detailed conclusions about a system under study.
