Summary
Toma Susi is an Associate Professor at the University of Vienna and an experimentalist-theorist in atomic-scale materials engineering who has led ERC-funded research to manipulate individual atoms in two-dimensional materials using focused electron beams. Raised in Helsinki and holding a DSc from Aalto University, he combined microscopy, spectroscopy and simulation to demonstrate controlled silicon atom movement in graphene and to pioneer atom implantation and quantum-corral design. Since 2017 he has translated that discovery into a multidisciplinary program advancing automated, model-driven electron-beam manipulation and implantation beyond silicon. Based in Vienna, he blends fundamental physics with practical nanofabrication goals, aiming to make atom-scale engineering a reproducible tool for nanotechnology. An understated strength is his knack for turning surprising imaging artifacts into new manipulation techniques, revealing capabilities that conventional microscopes were not designed to provide.
