Johannes Motruk

Dr. Johannes Motruk is a researcher in the Theory of Flat and Strange Quantum Matter group led by Prof. Louk Rademaker. His work focuses on theoretical condensed matter physics, particularly quantum many-body systems with strong correlations and topological features.

His research interests include:

• Quantum Many-Body Physics
• Condensed Matter Theory
• Frustrated Magnetism on Kagome Lattices
• Topological Phases and Spin Liquids
• Schwinger Boson Mean Field Approaches
• Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya Interactions in Antiferromagnets

The most recent highlighted work involves the study of the J1−J2−J3 kagome Heisenberg antiferromagnet with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions, published in Physical Review B in 2023. This research employs Schwinger boson mean field theory to explore complex magnetic phase diagrams, motivated by applications in transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) heterostructures. The work lies at the intersection of theoretical modeling and emergent quantum phenomena in flat band systems.
