nipi Group Leoben

Our research activities cover both application related research (realization, investigation and modeling of novel IR detector concepts based on doping superlattices) and basic research (realization, investigation and modeling of electronic systems in the intermediate regime between 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional physics, quantum Hall effect, metal-to-insulator transition, quantuminterference effects on macroscopic length scales, quantum transport)

Further general remarks about the research activities concerning n-i-p-i structures based on narrow-gap-semiconductors
