Eva Yocheved Andrei is an American condensed matter physicist, a Distinguished Professor, and a Board of Governors Professor at Rutgers University.[1] Her research focuses on emergent properties of matter arising from the collective behavior of many particles, especially low-dimensional phenomena under low temperatures and high magnetic fields.

Education and training

Andrei was born in Bucharest, Romania.[2] She received her bachelor's degree in physics from Tel Aviv University in Israel and her Ph.D. in physics from Rutgers University in the United States. After receiving her education, she worked as a postdoctoral fellow at Bell Labs,[3] Murray Hill NJ, and CEA Paris-Saclay.[4]

Career

Andrei began her independent career in 1987 as an assistant professor at Rutgers.[5] One of her first major contributions was establishing the existence of a Wigner solid in a 2D electron plasma.[6][7] More recently she has made major contributions to the study of graphene, including the detection of ballistic transport of charge carriers[8] and the observation of Van Hove singularity in twisted bilayer graphene.[9] Andrei's discovery of the fractional quantum Hall effect in graphene[10][11] was one of Science magazine's top ten discoveries for the year 2009.[12] Through studying moiré patterns in twisted sheets of graphene, Andrei observed the alignment of electrons which could facilitate the use of graphene in supercomputers.[13][14] Andrei's research has also presented the possibility that graphene could be used to cool supercomputers.[15][16] It has revealed new ways of making flat bands within twisted graphene[17] which may be used to make superlattice structures.[18] Eva Andrei received the Society of Physics Students Outstanding Teaching Award in 2014. As of January 2024, Andrei still facilitates research through Rutgers and as a postdoctoral fellow at Bell Labs. This includes experimental research[19] on the systems of reduced dimensionality at high magnetic fields and low temperatures. This research has led to many discoveries in the field of superconductivity, charge density waves, and magnetism.
