About CMTC
The Condensed Matter Theory Center (CMTC) was created in 2002 by the University of Maryland with the Distinguished University Professor Sankar Das Sarma as its permanent Director. The support for CMTC comes from the University of Maryland and the Laboratory for Physical Sciences (LPS). The sole purpose of CMTC is to maintain sustained excellence in theoretical condensed matter physics (defined in the broadest possible sense) at the University of Maryland. Highly interactive and collaborative research on the deepest frontiers of theoretical condensed matter physics is the primary goal of CMTC. The goal of CMTC is to have the best possible scientific quality in its members (and to foster creative interaction among them) so as to produce a highly visible and active (small) theory center.
