Prof Francois Peeters leads the Condensed Matter Theory Group at the University of Antwerp and also distinguished Professor at Yunnan University. Prof Peeters has made seminal contributions in areas of meso- and nano-physics of semiconductors, two dimensional materials and superconductors. Currently, his interest is in two-dimensional atomic thin materials and the application of those materials in excitonic superfuidity and nanofluiditics. He is Fellow of the European Physical Society and of the American Physical Society. He is also a member of the Royal Flemish Academy of Belgium and of the Academia Europea.
