PROF. DAVID CARROLL
My research group explores the fundamental roles that dimension, topology, and symmetry play in the emergent properties of condensed matter systems. This is a natural outgrowth of our long history in nano- systems. Explorations of these so called "quantum materials" sometimes yield opportunities in the development of new technologies. Other times, they may simply instruct us on the deeper meanings and connections in our world. Both of these possibilities, the basic and the applied, are welcomed and embraced by my research team. Through our work, we hope to add our distinctive voice to the truly transformative science of this era. Pro Humanitate
Our group typically presents its research at these meetings

Curiously Time Consuming Personal Projects

The Wake Physics Project
Wake Forest University is a deeply loved institution by most who work and study here. But it's strengths can be misunderstood. This project tracks the history of Physics at Wake, its programs and emphases, and what we are doing today that makes Wake a truly extraordinary environment for graduate studies in Physics.

The Quantum Computing Group
A small but energetic group of faculty and students at Wake has united through their common interest in Quantum Information Theory. Their simple goal is the construction of "Pauli" a room temperature, quantum processor based on a novel form of higher order topological stabilization.

4C11 Society
Friends, Influencers and Colleagues, from the steps of the MPI-FKF to the world. My group has very strong ties to the Max-Planck fur Festkorperforschung, Max-Planck fur Metallforschung, as well as several Fraunhofer Institute. Many of these collaboratives still meet regularly through the 4C11 Society
