Biography

Ben Feldman focuses on experimental condensed matter physics, particularly in areas such as semiconductor nanostructures and superconductivity. His research involves the measurement and control of atomic and molecular systems, exploring novel quantum materials. The investigations carried out in his lab address fundamental physics questions concerning the organization and flow of electrons at the nanoscale, utilizing advanced nanofabrication and precision low-temperature electrical measurements. He explores phenomena like quantum phase transitions and the behavior of strongly correlated electron systems. The use of scanning probe techniques for studying single atoms, molecules, and quantum phases is a significant aspect of his work, as is his focus on high-temperature superconductivity and magnetoresistive materials.
