Eskildsen Group

University of Notre Dame > Department of Physics > Condensed Matter & Biophysics Group

Welcome to our web-page, where you may learn about who we are and what we do

The group is dedicated to experimental studies of the fascinating physics of superconductors and vortices, with a strong emphasis on understanding the fundamental properties of such systems. The studies are carried out using two complimentary experimental techniques: Scanning Tunneling Spectroscopy (STS) and Small-Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS).

Running an experiment at the NG3 SANS spectrometer at the NIST Center for Neutron Reserach.

Highly motivated and exceptionally qualified candidates interested in pursuing an experimental Ph. D. within the field of research of the group should contact Prof. Morten Eskildsen and also consult the University of Notre Dame's Graduate School and Department of Physics web-pages.

Note: Summer or other internships are only possible if funding for travel, accomodation, etc. is provided through other sources such as e.g. the Notre Dame REU program. No support can be provided by this research group.

This research is funded by the National Science Foundation Division of Materials Research through grant number DMR-080488.
