Biography

Jarillo-Herrero received in 1999 his Licenciatura in physics from the University of Valencia in Spain. Then he was two years at the University of California, San Diego, where he received a M.Sc. in 2001. In 2005 at the Delft University of Technology in The Netherlands he earned his Ph.D., and continued on to a postdoc. In 2006 he moved to Columbia University, where he worked as a NanoResearch Initiative Fellow. In January 2008 he joined MIT as an assistant professor of physics and received tenure. In 2018 he was promoted to Full Professor of Physics.[1][2]

In 2018 Jarillo-Herrero presented a new 2D-platform to investigate strongly correlated physics, based on graphene moiré superlattices. When two graphene sheets are twisted by an angle close to a theoretically predicted magic angle,[3] the resulting flat band structure near the Dirac point gives rise to a strongly-correlated electronic system. His research demonstrated electrically tunable superconductivity in this system of pure carbon and without an applied magnetic field.[4]
