The interplay between various quantum phenominee leading to Majorana and Shiba states, and the property of the superconductor to provide spin-entangled electron pairs, make these systems ideal for utilising quantum mechanics. I am currently an Associate Professor.
	Dorthe Bjergskov Program Manager dorthe.bjergskov*nbi.ku.dk +45 9356 5517 HCØ Building 3-110	My research focuses on the physics of semiconductor nanowires couples to superconductors and on mesoscopic phenomena in strongly correlated electron systems emerging at the interfaces of complex oxide heterostructures.
