Type of internship
Expérimental Description
This internship focuses on exploring two-dimensional (2D) materials, particularly transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), which exhibit unique electronic phases such as charge density waves (CDWs). The project aims to study the interactions of CDWs with their atomic-scale environment using low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy (STM/STS). The intern will investigate how defects, interfaces, and neighboring CDWs affect the local electronic properties of single-layer TMDs and TMD heterostructures, providing insights into CDW coupling and atomic-scale perturbations in 2D quantum materials.
