Physics Colloquium - "Solving the Mott Problem" Presented by Professor Philip Phillips, UIUC

Location:

Lewis Lab 316

February 1, 2024, 4:25 - 5:25pm

Superconductivity in the copper-oxide ceramics remains a grand challenge in theoretical physics because of the paucity of tools to treat strongly coupled systems.  In such systems, all intuition based on single-particle physics fails.  Precisely what the propagating…

Physics Colloquium - "The Persistence of Spin Coherence in a Crystalline Environment" By Professor Ivan Biaggio

Location:

Lewis Lab 316

January 25, 2024, 4:25 - 5:25pm

The colloquium will focus on the entanglement of triplet exciton pairs as it can be observed in some organic molecular crystals. In such crystals, triplet excitons (quasiparticles with a spin of one) can be created as a spin-entangled pair via fission of a photoinduced singlet…
