معرفی
Dr. Iris Crassee is a researcher at the University of Geneva's Faculty of Sciences, Department of Physics. She specializes in condensed matter physics, photonics, and quantum electronics. Her work focuses on optical properties of advanced materials like graphene, Weyl semimetals, and multiferroics, with a strong emphasis on magneto-optical phenomena and spectroscopic techniques. She received the InnoSciences Award for developing analytical routines in the RefFIT software to enhance mathematical modeling capabilities. Her research integrates theoretical and experimental approaches to explore novel material behaviors under extreme conditions such as high magnetic fields and nanoscale confinement.
Key research interests include phonon polaritons in dielectric membranes, Weyl cone structures in TaAs, and multiferroic nickelates. She applies Raman, infrared, and terahertz spectroscopy to study electronic and magnetic properties. Recent studies have addressed nonlinear optical responses in gated graphene and topological effects in 3D Dirac semimetals like Cd3As2.
Dr. Crassee's award-winning project advances computational tools for materials science, enabling automated generation of analytical derivatives for scientific models. This supports interdisciplinary research bridging physics, chemistry, and engineering. Her work has been published in high-impact journals, with notable contributions to understanding magneto-optical signatures in Kane electrons and plasmon dynamics in nanoscale systems.
