German Hammerl

German Hammerl is a Senior Lecturer and active scientist in Experimental Physics VI at the Institute of Physics, University of Augsburg, within the Faculty of Mathematics, Natural Sciences, and Materials Engineering. He is part of a leading research group focused on oxide heterostructures, superconductivity, and quantum phenomena at interfaces.

His research interests span condensed matter physics, superconductivity, oxide thin films, two-dimensional electron systems, and crystal growth. He has extensively studied interfacial superconductivity in systems like LaAlO₃/SrTiO₃ and high-Tc cuprates, contributing to fundamental understanding and potential applications in quantum devices.

The 15 most recent publications reveal a consistent focus on quantum transport in oxide interfaces, superconducting bilayers, defect and doping effects, and nanoscale control of electronic states. These works appear in high-impact journals such as Nature, Science, and Physical Review B, reflecting significant contributions to the field of quantum materials.
