The CMMP group offers one of the most exciting environments in the UK for graduate studies in condensed matter physics. Research within the group spans a wide spectrum of subjects including quantum computing, organic electronics, superconductivity, the physics of the Earth's deep interior, biomagnetism, nanoscale imaging, etc. Currently the group comprises 90 members, including 26 academic staff and over 50 Ph.D. students, making it one of the largest condensed matter groups in the UK.

The group is located in the LCN and Physics buildings on the Bloomsbury campus. The LCN building is equipped with state-of-the-art facilities for the design, fabrication and analysis of nanoscale systems. In additional the group plays a leading role in the development and exploitation of x-ray and neutron scattering instruments at central facilities both national and international.

The CMMP group has both theoretical and experimental components and is closely associated to the Thomas Young Centre for Theory and Simulation of Materials. For more information visit TYC@UCL.
