The project, led by the Regents of the University of California at Riverside, aims to explore new quantum states of matter that could enable future technology revolutions in areas like quantum electronics and...
- This NSF Mathematical and Physical Sciences Federal Grant Program (CFDA 47.049) Project Grant award of $300,000 was made on August 1, 2025 to support a postdoctoral research fellowship at the University of California, Santa Barbara. The project aims to develop a novel computational framework for simulating non-equilibrium excitonic phenomena using the real-time evolution of the two-body Green's function. This work will help advance the simulation of quantum materials under extreme conditions,...
- The University of California, San Diego (UCSD) was awarded a $584,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences Federal Grant Program (CFDA 47.049). The grant funding will support UCSD's research on non-Fermi liquids and quantum criticality, utilizing a combination of analytical tools and numerical simulations to explore the fundamental physics of quantum entanglement and its role in unusual material properties at low temperatures. The research...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences grant award supports experimental research on the fundamental optical and electronic properties of semiconductor structures containing indirect excitons. The $643,641 project, which runs from October 1, 2025 to September 30, 2028, is led by the University of California, San Diego (UCSD). The research aims to study spin transport mediated by indirect excitons and the formation of excitonic Bose polarons - novel quasiparticles composed of direct excitons in a Bose gas of indirect excitons. The project provides research opportunities for students at the cutting edge of condensed matter physics and advances the fundamental understanding of the optical and electronic characteristics of semiconductor materials.
