معرفی
Valeri Kotov is a Professor in the Department of Physics at the University of Vermont, affiliated with the College of Engineering and Mathematical Sciences. He holds a Ph.D. from Clarkson University (1996). His research focuses on theoretical condensed matter physics, particularly correlated electron systems and the electronic properties of graphene. Kotov’s work explores quantum phenomena in two-dimensional materials, strain effects, and atomic interactions with graphene. His recent studies emphasize superfluid transitions, Coulomb interactions, and impurity-induced polarization in Dirac systems.
Key research themes include the interplay between electronic structure and emergent phases in graphene and related materials. His publications highlight advancements in understanding semi-Dirac fermions, van der Waals interactions, and quantum phase transitions. Kotov’s contributions span theoretical modeling of atomic layers, strain engineering, and low-dimensional systems.
His articles from 2022–2025 reflect a focus on strain-induced phenomena, superfluid-insulator transitions, and the role of impurities in Dirac materials. These studies bridge fundamental physics and potential applications in nanotechnology. No specific awards or grants are listed, though his extensive publication record underscores his academic impact.
