Innovating Functional Quantum Devices
We are an experimental physics group within the IMCN department at UCLouvain, studying quantum effects in low-dimensional materials to develop novel functional devices. Our research centers on cryogenic solid-state cooling, where we explore thermoelectric and electrocaloric effects and advance cryogenic thermal management at the nanoscale. We combine electrical and thermal transport measurements down to millikelvin temperatures, cryogenic thermometry, high magnetic fields, and cryogenic scanning probe microscopy to probe and control heat and charge flow in quantum materials.
Our research
Gehring Lab investigates in scanning probe microscopy, cryogenic magnetotransport, and the development of efficient quantum devices for energy conversion and thermal management.

About us
Founded in 2020 at UCLouvain (Belgium), the Gehring Lab explores low-dimensional materials and harnesses quantum effects to develop novel functional devices. Supported by major European and Belgian funding, we are steadily growing and pushing the boundaries of quantum materials research.
