By combining molecular design, on-surface synthesis and scanning probe microscopy, we can control atomic structure, electronic states and magnetic interactions within the same platform.<br>\r\nIn this talk, I will follow the path from bottom-up synthesized graphene nanoribbons [1,2] to open-shell nanographenes [3] and designer quantum spin systems [4]. I will discuss how atomic structure can determine electronic topology and how molecular spins can be coupled into well-defined quantum chains. Recent examples include Haldane chains [4], alternating-exchange spin chains [5] and antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chains [6], where collective and fractional excitations can be probed directly at the atomic scale.<br>\r\nMore broadly, this work illustrates a materials-science strategy in which structure, functionality and interactions are programmed at the level of molecular building blocks. Rather than optimizing properties in an existing material, the aim is to design the material and its quantum behavior together. Atomically precise carbon nanostructures therefore provide a model platform for exploring how synthesis, structure and emergent functionality can be linked in a predictive way, with implications for the future design of low-dimensional electronic, magnetic and quantum materials.\r\n</p><ol>\r\n\t<li>J.

He received his Ph.D. in Physics from the University of Fribourg in 1996 and then carried out postdoctoral research at La Trobe University in Melbourne and the Fritz Haber Institute in Berlin before joining Empa. Today, he heads Empa’s nanotech@surfaces Laboratory and is Adjunct Professor at the University of Bern. He pioneered the bottom-up synthesis of graphene nanoribbons, establishing on-surface synthesis as a major new direction in nanoscience, and has since extended this work to topological states, open-shell nanographenes and quantum spin chains.", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-09-14T10:43:28", "last_modification_date": "2026-09-14T10:43:41", "link_label": "Website", "link_url": "https://www.empa.ch/web/s205/roman-fasel", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "MXF 1", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==MXF%201", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Prof. Roman Fasel, EMPA, Zürich", "organizer": "Prof. Gregor Jotzu, Prof. Esther Amstad & Prof. Fabien Sorin", "contact": "Prof. Gregor Jotzu, Prof. Esther Amstad & Prof. Fabien Sorin", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Tout public", "en_label": "General public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/121785/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/8/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/314/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 72728, "title": "When Control Changes the Data: Safety under Interaction-Driven Distribution Shifts", "slug": "when-control-changes-the-data-safety-under-interac", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/when-control-changes-the-data-safety-under-interac", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33946/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33946/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33946/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-11-09", "end_date": "2026-11-09", "start_time": "14:00:00", "end_time": "15:00:00", "description": "<strong>This seminar is co-sponsored by the <a href=\"https://ieeecss.org\">IEEE-CSS</a>.</strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Abstract</strong>: <br>\r\nAccelerated by rapid advances in machine learning and AI, there has been tremendous success in the design of learning-enabled autonomous systems in areas such as autonomous driving and robotics. These exciting developments are accompanied by new fundamental challenges that arise regarding the safety and reliability of these increasingly complex systems due to imperfect learning, system unknowns, and uncertain environments. Statistical tools for uncertainty quantification have gained popularity due to their ability to deal with these challenges. However, their guarantees rely on i.i.d. data, an assumption that is violated when control actions change the underlying data distribution.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nIn this talk, I will provide new insight to design safe controllers under distribution shifts using robust conformal prediction (CP). I will begin by advocating for the use of CP due to its simplicity, generality, and efficiency as opposed to existing optimization-based verification techniques. I will then provide an introduction to CP and summarize existing work that uses CP to design probabilistically safe controllers in dynamic environments. Subsequently, we will look into interactive settings where the system’s behavior may change the environment's behavior, and vice versa. This circular dependency creates an interaction-driven distribution shift that invalidates existing CP guarantees. To deal with this problem, we propose an iterative framework that episodically updates the controller while robustly maintaining safety guarantees by quantifying the potential impact of a controller update on the environment's behavior. We realize this via adversarially robust CP where we perform a regular CP step in each episode using observed data under the current controller, but then transfer safety guarantees across controller updates by analytically adjusting the CP result to account for distribution shifts. Lastly, I will show how these ideas extend to handling policy-induced distribution shifts that arise when using barrier/Lyapunov functions to control uncertain systems.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Biography</strong>:<br>\r\nLars Lindemann is currently an Assistant Professor for Algorithmic Systems Theory in the Automatic Control Laboratory at ETH Zürich.
