Welcome to the Electronic Nanostructures Group

We study low temperature, low dimensional electron transport in quantum nanostructures. Our research interests span from quantum dots, to the interplay of superconductivity and quantum Hall effect, to multi-terminal Josephson junctions and thermal transport. Side interests include discovering novel ways of opening macadamia nuts, ghost Google doodle game, and fermentation processes.


Latest News

We are recruiting graduate students. Please contact Prof. Gleb Finkelstein for more information.

June 2024
Our paper on thermal properties of superconductor-quantum Hall interfaces is out on arXiv! This exciting paper combines prior work on superconductor-quantum Hall interfaces with our developments in thermal noise measurements.
