© Štěpán Sechovský The Materials Growth and Measurement Laboratory (MGML) is a large research infrastructure operated by the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University, in cooperation with the Institute of Physics of the Czech Academy of Sciences. The main research focus is condensed matter physics and materials sciences. More [...]
Tatsuya Yanagisawa, Hokkaido University and Sergei Zherlitsyn, HLD Dresden. Researchers from Japan and the Czech Republic, together with scientists from the HLD, have succeeded in identifying that electric quadrupoles play an important role in the magnetic order of the honeycomb-layer compound UNi4B. The scientists showed that these quadrupoles maintain their [...]
Banan Kerdi, Mathieu Pierre, Michel Goiran, and Walter Escoffier, LNCMI Toulouse. Transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) are two-dimensional layered materials showing intriguing electronic properties, especially when thinned down to a single layer. We studied WSe2 monolayers fabricated at LNCMI-Toulouse through transport measurements. We measured the magnetoresistance at 4.2 K under pulsed magnetic [...]
Dmitri Yakovlev and Peter Christianen, HFML Nijmegen. For a few decades, colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals have been the focus of intensive research. Due to the continuous progress in technology, nanocrystals with different sizes, shapes, compositions, and surface properties have been synthesized. Understanding their optical, electrical, and chemical properties has led to [...]
Sanu Mishra, Albin Demuer, Ilya Sheikin, LNCMI Grenoble, and Dai Aoki, Tohoku University. Strongly correlated electron systems, such as high-temperature superconductors, iron-based superconductors, and heavy-fermion compounds, are of high experimental and theoretical interest. In these materials, unconventional superconductivity is believed to emerge near a quantum critical point. In addition, some [...]
© Larysa Zviagina. Published on May 10, 2021. HLD, Dresden. It was during my PhD work at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory in Tallahassee that I first heard of the pulsed-field facility at HLD. The possibility of conducting experiments in very high magnetic fields, achieved within the time scale [...]

The primary objective of the EU funded design study SuperEMFL is to add an entirely new dimension to the EMFL through the development of all-superconducting user magnets at unprecedented field strengths of 40 T and beyond, granting the European high-field user community access to such high superconducting magnetic fields, more [...]
Since January 1, 2021, there have been some changes in the composition of the EMFL Board of Directors (BoD). Geert Rikken has stepped down as director of LNCMI and is succeeded by Charles Simon, who will join the EMFL BoD. Peter Christianen, director of HFML, fills the BoD chair position. [...]
S. Galeski, J. Gooth, MPI CPfS and T. Förster, HLD Dresden. The quantum Hall effect is a prominent example of a quantum phenomenon that is of great importance for research in solid-state physics and the application of electronic devices. Since 1990, it defines the standard used in resistance calibrations. It [...]
