Welcome to the Nanolino Lab at the Department of Physics, University of Basel!
Our research interest focuses on Scanning Probe microscopy and surface science. We are studying 2D materials and molecular systems with atomic force microscopy and scanning tuneling microscopy in ultra high vacuum at room and cryogenic temperatures. We are interested in their tribological, electronic and quantum properties. We also have some instrumental development of force microscopy activity.
