Professor Felix Baumberger

Université de Genève, Switzerland
Felix Baumberger obtained his PhD from the University of Zurich for work on surface states in 1D superlattices. He subsequently moved into correlated electron physics, first as postdoc with ZX Shen in Stanford and then as Lecturer at the University of St Andrews, UK. Since 2012 he is professor of physics at the University of Geneva with a joint affiliation at the Swiss Light Source. Felix pioneered laser-based micro-focus angle resolved photoemission for electronic structure studies of van der Waals heterostructures. He is also interested in bulk correlated electron systems and was responsible for the concept of the ARPES beamline I05 at Diamond Light Source.
