Juan Carlos Campuzano

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Juan Carlos Campuzano is an experimental solid-state physicist from Paraguay who, among other things, deals with high-temperature superconductors (HTS) and phase transitions in two dimensions. He is a professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC).

Campuzano studied physics and applied mathematics at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee with a bachelor's degree in 1972, a master's degree in 1973 and a doctorate in physics in 1978. As a post-doctoral student he was at Donnan Laboratories at the University of Liverpool until 1981 . There he dealt with two-dimensional phase transitions and the development of photoelectron spectroscopy microscopy. 1981 to 1985 he was at the Cavendish Laboratory in Cambridge . From 1985 he was at the UIC and from 1987 he was also at the Argonne National Laboratory .

He examines HTS with photoelectron spectroscopy , in which the superconductors are irradiated with UV light ( ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy ) and the electrons released are analyzed. In doing so, he discovered the scaling of the Fermi surface volume as in Luttinger fluids in the normal state, flat energy bands, the momentum dependence of the energy gap to the superconducting state, spontaneous break of the time mirror symmetry in HTS, the existence of Fermi arcs and their scaling, a pseudo-gap in the energy spectrum of with Holes in undoped superconductors and the existence of an extended singularity in the energy spectrum.

In addition, he investigated two-dimensional phase transitions, which he examined, for example, with a high-resolution diffractometer for low-energy electrons developed in his laboratory. He was able to show, among other things, that scattering in such systems at a critical point (a phase transition) can be described by conformally invariant theories, regardless of the exact type of interaction.

In 2011, together with Zhi-Xun Shen and Peter Johnson, he received the Oliver E. Buckley Condensed Matter Prize for innovations in angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy that advanced the understanding of high-temperature superconductors and transformed the study of strongly correlated electronic solid-state systems (laudation). He is a Fellow of the American Physical Society (2001).
