Abstract

In many research facilities and universities around the world you will find a group that is referred to as quantum matter or strongly correlated electron group. While those terms represent the interesting topics to study it is not so long ago that many of these groups were referred to as low temperature physics. Here the main technique used in the laboratory and in experiments present in this thesis is put into focus. This field experienced a boost when Kamerlingh Ones more than a hundred years first liquefied Helium. He was driven by the question: what happens to the electrical resistivity of a metal when cooled close to zero temperature. Doing so he discovered superconductivity in Mercury.
