Paul Malinowski, Klarman Fellow in physics in the 麻豆视频 and 麻豆视频, received the from the Aspen Center for Physics, awarded in recognition of outstanding achievements by a promising young physicist.
Malinowski, an experimental condensed matter physicist in the research group of , the James A. Weeks Professor of Physical 麻豆视频, uses the techniques of molecular beam epitaxy and angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy to study the properties of quantum materials such as unconventional superconductors.
The Block Award is given annually during the , with one award in each field. This year, Malinowski attended the New Frontiers of Unconventional and High Temperature Superconductivity conference, presenting his research 鈥淓lastic scattering controls the superconducting dome of electron-doped FeSe.鈥
鈥淭his was my first time attending an Aspen Winter Conference, and it was an amazing experience in an amazing and beautiful setting,鈥 Malinowski said. 鈥淭hese conferences are small and very focused, with this one dedicated to ongoing developments and open questions in the field of unconventional superconductivity. There were a lot of exciting new results presented and fruitful discussions about the state of the field, and I was delighted to have my work recognized by the Block award.鈥
The prize is named after particle physicist Martin Block, founder of the winter conferences, the first of which was held in 1985, and Beate Block, who volunteered many hours to launch winter meetings.
