Oliver Hartwig started to study Physics in 2011 at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology where he obtained his BSc degree in 2015. In the same year he moved to Munich to continue his studies in Applied and Engineering Physics at the Technical University of Munich. In 2018 he graduated with an MSc degree, focusing on “On-Chip Photon Generation and Detection Using Two-Dimensional Materials Coupled to Plasmonic Waveguides”. During his PhD at the University of the Bundeswehr Munich (UBWM) in the Group of Prof. Georg S. Duesberg, Oliver worked on the synthesis and characterization of 2D materials. While being in the last stages of completing his dissertation at UBWM, Oliver joined the Institute for Microelectronics, TU Wien in May 2023. In collaboration with the UBMW, Oliver currently investigates the growth of fluorides and 2D materials by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE).
