Low temperature THz near-field imaging for investigating low dimensional devices

Lead Research Organisation: University of Cambridge
Department Name: Physics

Abstract

The main objective of the project is to build a terahertz near-field microscope that can investigate samples at cryogenic temperatures. Which should allow us to investigate low dimensional quantum systems.
