Jonas Fransson

Jonas Fransson is a Professor at Uppsala University's Department of Physics and Astronomy, specializing in Materials Theory. His research focuses on non-equilibrium condensed matter physics, particularly chiral-induced spin selectivity (CISS), quantum transport in nanostructures, and magnetic phenomena in chiral systems. He has organized the CISS online seminar series since 2021, featuring international experts in spintronics and molecular electronics.

Key research interests include the interplay between chirality, spin dynamics, and electron correlations in molecular systems. His work explores applications in spintronics, energy materials, and biophysical systems, such as chiral-induced magnetization and spin-polarized charge transport.

Publications emphasize CISS mechanisms, phonon-induced spin effects, and theoretical models of chiral materials. He collaborates globally, including with institutions like Weizmann Institute, Harvard, and ETH Zurich. His contributions bridge fundamental physics and applied nanotechnology, with implications for next-generation spintronic devices and bio-inspired materials.
