I am a theoretical condensed matter physicist working in the areas of graphene, topological insulators and Majorana bound states. I work as an assistant professor in Delft University of Technology in the condensed matter theory group. I finished my PhD at Leiden University in the group of Carlo Beenakker. After Leiden I went to Harvard university as a Golub postdoctoral fellow, and finally moved to Delft in September 2013.

A very attractive book on graphene-based materials that takes a reader or student with no prior exposure to this topic to a level where he or she can carry out research at a high level and work in this area professionally. I would expect this to become a popular text for present and future researchers. Mildred Dresselhaus, Massachusetts Institute of Technology. R Saito, Tohoku University. The book should be useful not only.

Git repositories related to Kwant, a software for numerical quantum transport calculations. Python package for numerical quantum transport calculations. Arrays of numbers for Python, optimized for small sizes.

Nanophysics is just physics but at micro- and nano-scale. Surprisingly or not it is observed that at these subscales compared to our everyday life experience new physical phenomena are found, that are not known or are insignificant ar macro-scale.

Minimum length is 8 characters. The Gitlab instance of the Kwant. Can be found here, as well as the bug tracker.
