About PI
I’m an experimental condensed matter physicist at Missouri S&T. I’m interested in emergent quantum phenomena occurring in solid states where intricate many-body interactions bring about interesting electronic ground states. In particular, I’m focusing on various superconducting and topological phases that can potentially serve as a materials platform for quantum information technology, e.g., quantum computers.
