The Shoenberg Laboratory for Quantum Matter
The Shoenberg Laboratory for Quantum Matter was formed in 2004, combining the Low Temperature Physics group (LTP)
and the Interdisciplinary Research Centre in Superconductivity (IRC).
The Quantum Matter Group at the
Cavendish Laboratory,
University of Cambridge, studies matter under extreme conditions, i.e., at very low
temperatures, high magnetic fields and high pressure using advanced
experimental techniques. The goal of this research is to understand new
forms of magnetism and superconductivity and to find electrically
conducting materials with new physical properties not described within
the standard models of solid state physics. Some of the recent
discoveries of the group are finding applications in the fields of
refrigeration and detector technology.
The group is a beneficiary of funding from a wide array of national and international funding bodies. These include
EPSRC, the Royal Society, the COST ECOM P16 network, ICAM, KAIST as well as several Cambridge colleges.
