Experimental Quantum Materials Research Group (RNDr. Michal Vališka, PhD) ****************************************************************************************** * ****************************************************************************************** The group’s research contributes to a deeper understanding of modern quantum materials and groundwork for the future development of new functional and quantum technologies. The team focuses on the preparation and study of high-quality single crystals and other ma properties are governed by strong electronic correlations. The group investigates quantum low-dimensional and frustrated magnetism, and unconventional superconductivity, while expl between crystal structure, electronic states, and the magnetic, transport, and thermodynam materials. The team combines crystal growth, structural characterization, and precise physical measur extreme conditions of low temperature, high magnetic field, and pressure. Through close collaboration with leading international laboratories and large-scale resear infrastructures, the group has access to state-of-the-art experimental methods that make i reveal subtle details of quantum states of matter inaccessible by conventional approaches. Michal Vališka is an experimental physicist at the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Cha University. After completing his PhD studies at the faculty, he worked at the Institut Lau subsequently at CEA Grenoble, where he focused on strongly correlated electron systems and superconductivity. After returning to Prague, he established his own research group and no GAČR Junior Star project STiUS: Symmetry and Topology in Ultraclean Superconductors. For h received the Neuron Award for Promising Scientists in Physics. Photo: Vladimír Šigut, CU
