Daria Markina

Daria Markina is a Researcher at Technical University of Darmstadt, working in the Hybrid Quantum Systems group since April 2023. Her research focuses on experimental investigation of novel van der Waals magnets and nanophotonic systems.

Education:

• PhD in Physics, ITMO University (St. Petersburg, Russia), completed December 2022. Thesis: "Spectrally tunable laser generation in lead halide perovskite micro- and nanowires" under Dr. Anatoly Pushkarev and Prof. Sergey Makarov.

Her core research spans experimental nanophotonics, nonlinear optical phenomena, and novel materials characterization with emphasis on sensing applications. Current work explores quantum properties of 2D magnetic materials, building on her doctoral expertise in perovskite nanowire photonics for tunable laser development. This bridges condensed matter physics and quantum technology applications.

As part of the Hybrid Quantum Systems team at TU Darmstadt, she operates from the physics department facility (S2|07 153) advancing fundamental research in quantum materials with potential spintronic applications.
