Thomas Lühmann

Thomas Lühmann is a Researcher in the Physics of Quantum Materials department at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Physics of Solids in Dresden, Germany, where he has held a permanent position since 1998.

His academic background includes:

• Diploma in Physics from Technical University Darmstadt (1990)
• Doctoral degree (Dr. rer. nat.) from Technical University Darmstadt (1996)

Dr. Lühmann's research focuses on quantum phenomena in solid-state systems, with emphasis on novel electronic and magnetic properties of quantum materials. His work bridges experimental condensed matter physics and materials science, investigating emergent behaviors in complex materials that could enable next-generation quantum technologies. The Physics of Quantum Materials department employs advanced spectroscopic and diffraction techniques to probe fundamental properties of matter under extreme conditions.

As a core member of the institute's research team, he contributes to collaborative projects exploring topological materials, superconductivity, and correlated electron systems, supporting the Max Planck Society's mission in fundamental materials research.
