Welcome to QNC-MBE Facility and Zbig's Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) research group. We aim to grow the most advanced III-V compound semiconductor nanostructures that will enable the technologies of the future. Please navigate through the left side bar to get to know us better.

Zbigniew Wasilewski

Professor, Research Chair in Nanotechnology, and Director of the QNC-MBE Facility

Dr. Zbigniew (Zbig) Wasilewski is internationally renowned for his contributions to molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) and to the development of quantum-dot and quantum-well photonic devices, including terahertz quantum cascade lasers (QCLs). His work also spans quantum structures and devices based on high-mobility two-dimensional electron gases, such as lateral few-electron quantum dot circuits—potential building blocks for future quantum computers.
