prof. dr hab. Piotr Wiśniewski - Head of the DMR
Received his MSc in Physics from the University of Wroclaw in 1988, a PhD, and a habilitation in Physics from the Institute of Low Temperature and Structure Research, Polish Academy of Sciences, in 1997 and 2008, respectively. Since 2014 he has been employed as an Institute professor. In September 2021 he was awarded the title of Professor in Physics. In the meantime, Piotr Wiśniewski was a post-doctoral fellow at Laboratoire Léon Brillouin, CEA/CNRS, Saclay, France (1997-1998) and at Osaka University, Japan (1998-2000).
The current research of Piotr Wiśniewski focuses on the exploration of emergent quantum phenomena in intermetallic materials through studies of their magnetic properties, electronic structure and superconducting state. His expertise comprises: the growth and characterization of single crystals, measurements of their magnetic and thermal properties, determination of magnetic structures with neutron diffraction, and characterization of Fermi surface properties via quantum oscillations in magnetic susceptibility, magnetoresistance, and magnetostriction.
