Philip Moll, Director of the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter in Hamburg, Germany, has been elected a Fellow of the American Physical Society (APS). In its citation, the Society highlights his achievements in the field of microstructured quantum matter, in particular the “elucidation of three-dimensional electronic transport on the micron-scale in quantum materials by creatively applying focused ion beams to precisely shape samples, thereby revealing previously inaccessible physics.“
"I am truly moved by the recognition of my department’s work in pushing the size and scale boundaries of quantum materials,” says Philip Moll. “This is just the beginning of an exciting journey, and I feel incredibly fortunate to explore it alongside such a talented and dedicated team."
Moll established the Department for Microstructured Quantum Matter at the MPSD in 2021. Its researchers investigate the electronic and magnetic properties of a wide range of solids by producing micro- and nanostructures of these complex compound materials. State-of-the-art Focused Ion Beam technology permits crystalline circuits to be carved out of these particles with nanometric precision. Their electronic responses are then probed by charge transport experiments, at cryogenic and dilution-refrigerator temperatures and in high magnetic fields up to 20 Tesla.
The APS awards Fellowships to “such Members who have contributed to the advancement of physics by independent, original research or who have rendered some other special service to the cause of the sciences."

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
