Our research focuses on single biomolecules and carbon nanotubes. The group is led by professor Cees Dekker, who recently split off from the Quantum Transport group together with his coworkers. Most of our current work is still related to quantum transport in mesoscopic, confined structures like carbon nanotubes and DNA molecules. However, new themes involving single biomolecules will be explored in the near future. Since we are starting up many new projects we have a number of vacancies, that can be found in 'Open positions'.
