Kunchur, Milind

Professor

Our group investigates phenomena in superconducting nanowires and thin films, as well as other condensed-matter systems, at ultra-short time scales and under extreme conditions of current density, electric field and dissipation levels. My other interest lies at the intersection of psychophysics, human hearing, and high-end audio.
