The department was formed in October 1993 as a result of the reorganization of the physics faculty. Presently the scientific activity of this young department is mainly concentrated around the experimental and theoretical research in quantum solid state but also includes a growing group of theoretical astrophysicists.

The newly established Braun Center for sub micron research is an integral part of the department. It is a modern and well equipped center which allows to conduct experiments on sub micron semiconductor structures as well as normal and high temperature superconductors.
