Research Interests
We use transport and scanned probes to study a variety of systems and phenomena down to the nanoscale.
These include:
- Manifestations of quantum mechanics in solids & electronic devices;
- Cooperative effects, interactions & many-body physics;
- Topological insulators;
- Superconductivity;
- Nanomechanics and imaging of vortices in superconductors.
