• Why does Ronald Mulder experience hardly any ice friction at 60 km/h? News - 12 February 2018

  How can Ronald Mulder run his skates across an ice layer at 60 km/h? His skating blades get help from a lubricating layer of meltwater. In Leiden, physicists found this explanation to be incomplete. Theoretician Hans van Leeuwen and experimental physicist Tjerk Oosterkamp searched for a deeper answe…

• Evaluation of the Law Ombudsperson for Children Research project

  To what extent does the Law Ombudsperson for Children achieve its goals as intended by the legislator when introducing the law?

• Rubicon grant for Remko Fermin: superconducting diodes for energy-efficient data centres News - 10 August 2023

  Physicist Remko Fermin from Leiden University was awarded a Rubicon grant from NWO. He will use it to study superconducting diodes that could contribute to reducing the CO2 emission of data centres.

• Setup: Static Magnetic Field with Low Noise Oosterkamp Lab

  Our cantilevers have a low intrinsic damping rate: this enables us to measure with low noise, since damping is proportionate to noise. However, when the magnet is close to the surface of a sample we want to study, we measure a much higher effective damping rate. This is caused by magnetic interaction…

• Advances in SQUID-detected Magnetic Resonance Force Microscopy Research output

  In this thesis, we describe the latest advances in SQUID-detected Magnetic Resonance Force Microscopy (MRFM).

• Insights from scanning tunneling microscopy experiments into correlated electron systems Research output

  This thesis presents insights from our study of various correlated electron systems with a scanning tunneling microscope (STM). In ordinary metals, electron-electron interactions exist, but get substantially screened due to the sheer number of electrons.

• Superlattices in van der Waals materials: A Low-Energy Electron Microscopy study Research output

  n this PhD thesis, the recombination of different atomic lattices in stacked 2D materials such as twisted bilayer graphene is studied. Using the different possibilities of Low-Energy Electron Microscopy (LEEM), the domain forming between the two atomic layers with small differences is studied.

• Parkinson’s protein α-synuclein: membrane interactions and fibril structure Research output

  The thesis describes the use of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, in continuous wave and pulse modes, to address the interaction of α-Synuclein (αS) with membranes and the aggregation of αS.

• Probing Gravity at Cosmic Scales Research output

  The theoretical explanation of cosmic acceleration is nowadays one of the biggest puzzles in cosmology.

• Probing new physics in the laboratory and in space Research output

  The Standard Model (SM) of particle physics fails to explain several observed phenomena and is incomplete. In order to resolve this problem, one may extend the SM by adding new particles.

• Nano-scale electronic structure of strongly correlated electron systems Research output

  In condensed matter systems electron-electron interactions, negligible in everyday metals, can dramatically alter the electronic behavior of the system. Examples of such altered behavior include high-temperature superconductivity and modulation of the electron density.

• Impact Dossier

  With our research and teaching, we help make the world a better place. We join in the academic and public debate, and seek answers to economic and social issues – not just at the local and regional level but at the global one too.
