Shinichi joins us fresh out of his PhD in Applied Physics at University of Tokyo. His PhD work was on topological materials, especially focusing on non-trivial bulk/surface magneto-transport phenomena. In the group he is planning to work on MBE and spectroscopy/transport of topologically non-trivial Heusler compounds.
Chris Palmstrøm is the 2018 David Adler Lectureship Award recipient "for innovative experimental research, lectures, and writing in the areas of dissimilar materials epitaxy, heterostructures and interfaces in thin films." Congratulations!
