Eva
Andrei holds an apointment as a Professor in the Physics and Astronomy Department
at Rutgers University . Her research
in experimental condensed matter physics is centered
on the dynamics and thermodynamics of low dimensional systems.
Currently she is working on the
electronic properties of graphene – a one-atom thick membrane of
crystalline
carbon with extraordinary electronic properties stemming from charge
carriers
that behave like ultra-relativistic particles. Her other research
interests
include: dynamics of vortices in superconductors; correlated
phenomena of
two-dimensional electron layers realized on liquid helium
and at semiconductor
interfaces; ferroelectric polymers. She employs a range of
nano-fabrication and characterization
techniques including scanning tunneling microscopy
and spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, atomic force
microscopy, radio-frequency spectroscopy and magneto-transport.
Eva Andrei is a Fellow of the American Physical Society (APS), a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) and has served on the executive committee of the APS. She is currently a member of the editoral board of Solid State Communications and is the editor of Two Dimensional Electrons on Helium and other Cryogenic Substrates published by Kluwer Academic Press. Andrei was awarded the French CEA Medal of physics for her work on the Magnetically Induced Wigner Crystal and the "Rutgers Board of trustees award for excellence in research" for her work on graphene.
