Topics<br />

In the last twenty years,<br />

numerous new electronic<br />

materials have been<br />

discovered with interesting<br />

and often complex<br />

crystalline structures and<br />

outstanding new electronic<br />

properties. These<br />

new striking properties are<br />

found in some magnetic,<br />

ferroelectric and superconducting<br />

compounds. All<br />

these compounds have a<br />

large potential for applications<br />

and we believe that<br />

they will play a key role in<br />

advanced future electronic<br />

devices. Among the materials<br />

displaying these unexpected<br />

exceptional properties,<br />

many share in common<br />

a low dimensionality and a<br />

low carrier density. Most<br />

of them are complex oxide<br />

systems and, in many of<br />

these materials, electronic<br />

inter actions play an important<br />

role making these<br />

systems very difficult to<br />

treat theoretically. Another<br />

characteristic of these systems<br />

is that they often have<br />

competing ground states,<br />

for instance magnetic and<br />

superconducting, which<br />

makes them very sensitive<br />

to many external parameters,<br />

leading to interesting<br />

functionalities. In<br />

MaNEP, the main goals of<br />

our <strong>NCCR</strong> are to develop<br />

a basic understanding of<br />

these new materials, to<br />

prepare for their applications,<br />

and to train young<br />

scientists in this important<br />

field for future electronic<br />

applications. After the end<br />

of the third phase, these<br />

topics will be pursued at<br />

the University of Geneva<br />

with many of the present<br />

members of MaNEP.<br />
