Speaker: Prof. Kayla Nguyen, University of Oregon, Physics
Abstract: The advent of electron microscopy has revolutionized materials discovery. However, one of the main barriers is the cost of expensive aberration correcting lenses for atom-by-atom imaging.
Speaker: Ethan Minot
The electrostatic landscape in low-dimensional materials can be controlled by engineering the external environment. External charges near the material can produce hills and valleys of potential energy that modify the properties of the material. In some applications, we seek quantum materials… Read more
Speaker: Prof. Katelyn Breivik, Carnegie Mellon University, Physics
Abstract: Recent observations of gravitational waves from merging double-compact-object binaries have reignited an explosive interest in the formation and evolution of compact objects in binary-star systems. However, by the time a compact-object binary merges and produces the… Read more
