Prof. Dr. S. Hollands Prof. Dr. R. Seidel Fakultät für Physik und Geowissenschaften Physik-Kolloquium Dienstag, den 31.05.2016, 16.00 Uhr Prof. Dr. Dirk K. Morr University of Illinois at Chicago Transport at the Nanoscale: from Biological Complexes to Hard Condensed Matter Over the last few years, transport phenomena at the nanoscale have become of paramount importance, not only because we have reached the end of the (classical) rope for Moore's law, but also because nanosize biological complexes might hold the key to building highly efficient technologies for solar energy conversion. In this talk, I will review several examples of charge and energy transport in systems ranging from biological light-harvesting complexes to topological superconductors and strongly correlated materials. I will discuss the crossover from classical to quantum transport that occurs at the nanoscale, and demonstrate how this crossover provides us with unprecedented opportunities to discover exciting new physical phenomena. Ort: Hörsaal für Theoretische Physik, Linnéstraße 5 Alle Teilnehmer sind ab 15.30 Uhr zu Kaffee vor dem Hörsaal eingeladen.
