Linear Electrodynamic Response of Topological Semimetals / Springer Series in Solid-State Sciences Bd.199 (PDF)

Artem Pronin graduated from the Moscow Physics and Engineering Institute in 1994. His PhD research was conducted at the A. M. Prokhorov Institute of General Physics of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, and was devoted to infrared and THz spectroscopy of superconductors. During his PhD studies, he spent a research term at the University of Augsburg, and in 1998, he received his PhD in solid-state physics from the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology. Afterwards, he held postdoctoral positions at McMaster University, Canada, at Leiden University in the Netherlands, and at the University of Leeds, UK. During these terms, he studied various optical spectroscopic methods and investigated a variety of materials, which exhibited electronic correlations. In 2006, he joined the High Magnetic Field Laboratory in Dresden, Germany, where he carried out experimental optical investigations in high magnetic fields before moving to the University of Stuttgart in 2015. There, he has been leading a group at the 1st Physics Institute, which investigates optical properties of different topological materials, particularly of Weyl and Dirac semimetals. Overall, Artem Pronin has more than 70 publications on infrared, THz, and dielectric properties of superconductors, materials with strong electronic correlations, and topological materials.
