The UCSD Nanoscience group is dedicated to studies of emergent phenomena in materials that have their dimensions reduced to the nanoscale in one or more dimensions. This includes studies of superlattices, heterostructures, nanostructures, arrays and porous materials. Materials systems include metals, oxides, fluorides, semiconductors, and rare earth based compounds and alloys. Physical properties such proximity effects, and induced phenomena are studied in magnetic, superconducting and inhomogeneous materials using laboratory and major facility based state-of-the-art fabrication and characterization techniques.
