Dr Wladislaw Michailow

Dr Wladislaw Michailow is Junior Research Fellow at Trinity College Cambridge and works at the Cavendish Laboratory of the University of Cambridge.

Wladislaw started his undergraduate studies at the University of Augburg in Germany at the age of 15. During his Bachelor's research work, he studied the interaction of surface acoustic waves with two-dimensional materials, the transition metal dichalcogenides. He moved on to the Technical University of Munich where he was working on exploiting holes in InGaAs self-assembled quantum dots as qubits using methods of optical spectroscopy as part of his Master's research project. Wladislaw did his PhD work in the Semiconductor Physics Group of the Cavendish Laboratory. His doctoral thesis is dedicated to the interaction of terahertz radiation with semiconductor nanostructures and quantum systems at cryogenic temperatures.

Wladislaw's research interests include semiconductor physics, terahertz science and technology, and low-temperature measurements. His current work is dedicated to detection and modulation of terahertz radiation using metamaterials and two-dimensional electron gases in semiconductors and layered materials.
