Bogdan Andrei Bernevig (born 1978 in Bucharest) is a Romanian Quantum Condensed Matter Professor of Physics at Princeton University and the recipient of the John Simon Guggenheim Fellowship in 2017. [1]
Biography
Andrei Bernevig took part in the Physics Olympiad in Bucharest from 1994 to 1997 as a teenager (and won international gold and silver medals). [2] He graduated from Stanford University (bachelor's degree in physics and master's degree in mathematics in 2001) and received his PhD from Stanford University under Shoucheng Zhang. As a postdoctoral fellow he came to the Center for Theoretical Physics at Princeton University, where he was appointed Assistant Professor in 2009 and Associate Professor in 2014. [3]
He deals with the application of topology in solid state physics, for example in the fractional quantum hall effect, and novel topological materials ( topological insulators, topological superconductors) and spin transport or spintronics. He also deals with ferrous high-temperature superconductors and predicted s-wave pairing there.
Awards
In 2016 he received the New Horizons in Physics Prize. [4] In 2014 he received the Sackler Prize. [5] In 2017 he was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship [6] and, in 2018, an Alexander von Humboldt Professorship. [7] In 2019 he was awarded the James C. McGroddy Prize for New Materials from the American Physical Society. [6] [8] He was named a Fellow of the American Physical Society in 2022 "for broad and significant contributions to the discovery and understanding of new topological quantum phases". [9]
