Strain Modulated Superlattices in GrapheneThe quest to create novel material systems with designer electronic properties has often led to the investigation of interfaces and superlattices. The potential of customizing properties by merging different 2D materials via vertical or horizontal stacking to create van der Waals or lateral heterostructures seems limitless. In this presentation I ...
Constraints on Quantum GravityAlthough predictions of quantum gravity are typically at extremely high energy, over the last decades several non-trivial constraints on its low energy effective theory have been found. I will start by explaining why the unification of general relativity and quantum mechanics has been difficult. After introducing the holographic principle as ...
