Quantum Nanomaterial Research
At CMU, I worked with Jyoti Katoch's LIQUID group to study exotic 2D materials. We collaborate
with Berkeley Lab
to perform nanoARPES, which enables direct imaging of the band structure of 2D materials. I designed and
built a
cryogenic 2D material transfer station to enable exfoliation and stacking of heterostructures at low
temperatures.
At Cornell, I worked with Kenji Yasuda's group. While there, I recieved an grant to study the effects of strain on topological phase transitions, specifically relating to superconductivity, in twisted bilayer graphene - read more. I also designed and built a probe which allows us to characterize our samples at very cold (<20K) temperatures in a cryostat. Read more.
