La División Bajas Temperaturas posee más de 40 años de experiencia en el estudio de propiedades de la materia condensada a bajas temperaturas. Durante un largo período la actividad del laboratorio se centró en la investigación de materiales superconductores y de sistemas electrónicos fuertemente correlacionados. Sin embargo, en los últimos años las líneas de investigación del grupo se han diversificado considerablemente. Además de los temas mencionados, actualmente se estudian películas delgadas y multicapas de manganitas magnetorresistentes, coexistencia de magnetismo y superconductividad, propiedades del He superfluído, sistemas mesoscópicos, entre otras.
