Research

Prof. Eskildsen performs neutron scattering studies of superconductors and certain magnets to understand their fundamental properties. Such an understanding is necessary in applications of the materials to improve energy efficiency in, for example, power transmission or electronic devices.

Research Interests

Superconductivity, Magnetism, Smart Distribution and Storage
