About Mark

Prof. dr. M.S. (Mark) Golden is Professor in the Faculty of Science at the University of Amsterdam, affiliated with the Van der Waals-Zeeman Institute and the Institute of Physics, where he leads the Quantum Materials Group. His research centers on the experimental investigation of the electronic structure and properties of quantum matter and emergent quantum materials. Key areas include unconventional superconductors such as high-temperature superconducting cuprates and their strange metal state, topological materials including magnetic topological insulators, Dirac and Weyl semimetals, transition metal oxides and their heterointerfaces, and 2D materials down to the single monolayer limit. He employs advanced techniques such as angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES), soft and hard X-ray photoemission, X-ray absorption spectroscopy, magnetic circular dichroism, and coherent soft X-ray lensless imaging, often conducted at synchrotron light sources.
