Dense amorphous materials which exhibits a solid-like behaviour, or ‘structural glasses’, are ubiquitous around us. They span a very wide range of experimental systems in soft matter, condensed matter, or biophysics, such as emulsions, foams, biological tissues,...

I will talk about types and properties of excitons in two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals magnetic insulators and semiconductors, such as CrI3, CrSBr, NiPS3, etc. In these materials excitons couple with the spin-polarized band structure, resulting in various correlated...

The study of strongly interacting electrons in moiré heterostructures of semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides (sTMDs), such as WSe2 and WS2, has led to the discovery of long sought-after quantum phases and behavior. In addition, strong light-matter...

Many correlated electron systems with diverse magnetic and electronic ground states turn into bad metals at high temperature – that is their resistivity increases with temperature and shows no sign of saturation well beyond the Mott-Ioffe-Regel (MIR) limit. In...

In this talk, I will illustrate through two examples how electronic and structural couplings at oxide interfaces can lead to exciting novel properties and 2D systems [1,2]. A striking example is the interface between LaAlO3 and SrTiO3, two good band insulators, which...
