Research
The Department of Physics concentrates its research activities in five main areas: Condensed Matter, Particle Physics, Medical Physics, Accelerator Physics and Cold Atoms. The research groups deal with current topics in their respective research fields and work on experimental or theoretical problems. They are integrated into coordinated programs, such as Collaborative Research Centers or Research Training Groups. The individual research focuses are closely linked to a large number of non-university and also international research institutions in terms of content and personnel.
![Band structure of 2D semimetal based on HgTe quantum well. Experimental points are obtained from the analysis of the cyclotron resonance in the quasi-classical approximation. Solid lines are predictions of the kp theory with no free parameters. Splitting of the conduction (e1,2) and valence (h1) band is due to the quantum confinement. [J.
