Farsane Tabataba-Vakili has been teaching and researching at the Institute for Condensed Matter Physics at TU Braunschweig since September. Previously, she was a postdoctoral fellow at LMU München and received her PhD from Université Paris-Saclay. In her research, the Berlin-based physicist focuses on two-dimensional quantum materials. One of the most prominent representatives is graphene, which became known as the “thinnest material in the world” after its discovery in 2004. Many new materials with outstanding properties can now be produced. “We do basic research with possible applications in sensor technology and metrology, in spintronics and (quantum) optoelectronics” says Professor Tabataba-Vakili in the TU Braunschweig online magazine.
