My work is leading young people to understand new things that they have never seen. I help them make new things to understand even newer things that everyone needs to know. This happens in a space where lots of young people sit in chairs and also in a space with big things with lots of things to push to make new ideas appear. The young people make me get new ideas as well, and together we make the world more good.
We work on things that happen very fast and are so tiny that they make up all things. These things have different forces that no one understands. Some of these things are like the left and right hand and come about by getting the tiny things into a larger thing, or by having some of the smallest bits move together as a crazy group. Some of those larger things where the tiny bits move together get sort of lost and go crazy. Also, we look at just one tiny grouped thing and pass tiny bits through it to make the world more good. We also do heavy numbers to get what these tiny grouped things do on their own. And we group tiny things into more than one layer and here the tiny bits are also being funny.
To do all of this I need to get money. I write long things with many words that other people like me read and hate or like. If they like it nice people in a bigger city give me money, or send it to other people to read. If they hate it I have to write it again and I remain without money. My students don't eat if I don't have money. Finally, I tell other people like me in my house where I work what they can or should do.
I did my Bachelors in Chemistry at the University of Madras and my Masters in Chemistry from NIT-Bhopal. In LabMontiTM, my research focuses on the CISS effect and 2D materials. I enjoy listening to Tamil and Hindi music, and when I’m not working, I go to the gym!
I graduated with a B.A. in Chemistry from Grinnell College in 2020. In LabMontiTM, I am studying Quantum Transport working on the Mechanically Controlled Break Junction project. Outside of lab, I enjoy being active with sports and playing board games.
Born and raised in Seoul, South Korea.
I received my B.S. in Chemistry and Physics at Chung-Ang University in Seoul, received a M.S. in Inorganic Chemistry at the same institute. My research field involves photoemission spectroscopy of 2D materials and quantum materials. Out of the work, I enjoy stargazing and astrophotography with my 8" Newtonian telescope, spending a whole night awake.
Looking into tiny things that act weird when seen using light. The tiny thing dances when brought next to outside fields. My work is to understand the steps in that dance using light.
When those tiny things come together to form another not so tiny thing, they then can form another little thing that is mirrored in how it looks. These mirrored looking little things when dropped onto the top of a hard and big block start to dance to the beat of the little things. Two different mirror looking little things will show two different dance steps that were not there when the little things were not there.
The little things on the big blocks are then used to say and store an idea quickly in a small box that can be taken anywhere and everywhere.
In my studies, I pass the very, very, very small things that make up everything through a tiny opening. With changes to our very small things, which are made up by the very, very, very, small things and actually make up everything, I can find which ones are better or worse. With an even, but not actually even, number of the very, very, very small things in the less small, but still very small thing, the coupling is very important when you have strong add ons, since it pulls the very, very, very small thing at the highest number to the add on and off of the important part. Once that is understood, the order comes from the number with only one of the very, very, very, small things in it, not the highest one that is full.
I also am understanding how putting one of the very small things in a different very small thing, and see how the answer changes. I think it will end up the same, but better and cleaner than if the first very small thing was alone. So far, that is what everything I have seen says will happen. However, I think we can understand more than others because we are good with computers and our friends in other schools are even better, which gives us a new direction.
Another thing I am doing is trying to cover our tiny opening with something like water, but definitely not water, and to keep it covered the whole time. We think that it will make the answer cleaner and easier to understand than it is right now.
Not my own studies, but I also helped others get better at playing with cool stuff down stairs and move their own studies forward for two years, and I got to play with them a lot myself and get good with them, before giving way to the person that usually sits behind me.
I am a student who's expecting to finish my work soon. My field of study is the understanding of new stuff where the top side is dressed and changed with small stuff. I check how the changed stuff shows up after such a care using very nice things like glasses that look into tiny stuff and a thing that kicks smaller stuff. By seeing the changes at a smaller space, me and my friends tell stories that can go bigger to other stuff that will change our lives.
I graduated from Nazarbayev University in Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan as a Bachelor of Science in Physics in 2017 and then as a Master of Science in Physics in 2019. My research in LabMontiTM involves new anomalous quantum Hall effect systems. I enjoy reading sci-fi and fantasy books, learning to cook, playing video games and guitar and watching anime.
I graduated from Oklahoma State University with a Bachelor of Science Chemistry (2019). I am now studying Quantum Transport by working with the Mechanically Controlled Break Junction experiment. In my free time I enjoy computer games and reading fiction authors like Christopher Paolini and Brandon Sanderson.
I am a passionate physicist with a BS and MS in Condensed Matter Physics from the University of Isfahan. I am exploring non-Hermitian systems, quantum and 2D materials. Outside of academia, I find joy in embracing life's simple pleasures, with hiking, cooking and astro-photography.
My work is on the study of the many layer matter that you can cut in single layer without much force. To make it, you just grab the layer and knock it. That can lead to an interesting finish. Different number of layer can flip its direction of the field inside or even turn it somewhere else. I can add something between the layer and that can also change the direction of the moment of the smaller bits of matter (that our world is build from). You can also build on and cover some of that many layer matter with another matter. Different directions of their hand field can also flip the direction of the moment of the smaller matter. And that build layer on layer can make the field between very strong. If the field is strong enough to flip the direction the small matter moves. To see all these changes I use light and look at the very small pictures of the matter with high picturing power. All of these finding can help make new memory cells without memory lost with no pause.
I'm interested in answering questions about really small things. These small things look like balls. if you join two of these same balls and you have the thing we breathe. if you join those same two balls with a different third ball then you have water.
I position these small things within pointed blocks, and these pointed blocks have power to push even smaller balls through the really small things to get answer. The answer I get is usually not a good one. So, I consider the answer to my question along with help from a computer. I then show my answer to other people, who tell me my answer is not the only possible answer.
The most important thing is where two eyes join to be one eye. My work is about things that are so small, we can not see them even with the best eyes, and I study how tiny moving parts inside them act when power can both come in and go out at the same time. In that body everything is nice and fix. Most good people like to study things that are closed and quiet, but real things are never like that, so I look at things that lose and not lose power and see how this changes the way their tiny moving parts act.
I focus on a body that is only one or two skin thick and can be used in tomorrow box like faster computers, better lights. I use light to understand how these tiny parts move, and join in strange ways that do not happen in normal body. By learning these, they may lead to new things that is smaller, faster than what we have today.
To do this work, I use a nice computer and light to look at small parts of a thing and see what happens inside. I watch how light touches the skin of body and how the picture on the computer changes. I try again and again to find clear signs and follow them carefully. This helps me understand where the small parts are and how they move. By doing this many times, I can explain why they act in strange and new ways.
I am originally from Dhaka, Bangladesh, where I did my BS and MS in chemistry at the University of Dhaka. I got a 2nd MS from Mississippi State University. In LabMontiTM, I study quantum transport with mechanically controlled break Junctions. In my free time, I like to do photography and travel to new places.
I received my B.A. in physics from Case Western Reserve University in 2024. I’m currently working on altermagnetism along with ARPES of 2D materials. Outside of LabMonti™ I enjoy cooking, watching movies, practicing guitar, and playing with my cat Fermi.
I received my Bachelor of Science in Chemistry from the University of North Dakota in 2025. In LabMontiTM, I am studying the CISS effect and 2D materials. Outside of the lab, I enjoy reading, playing tennis, and drinking Dr. Pepper.
I am an upper school student who is working with very tiny stuff that breaks in the middle using outside force and then forms back when the force is taken away. Let's give it a name, TV. Breaking and forming of the TV happens a lot. I put a different type of stuff, which is very, very tiny and can not be seen with empty eyes, between the TV and see how much of the stuff that can shock a person I can get.
I am planning to put a thing that can pull or push other things to see what happens to the TV when it breaks and forms a lot.
My world is about stuff that can move little shock things in different directions: it can move many, a few, or none at all if I push them with enough power. All of this happens with very small things we can't see talking to each other and sharing their little shock things. Each little thing's next door thing is turned in a different way, but if you look at a few of them it will look kind of the same. This stuff, with some other big things, makes your computer talk to you.
This is a new thing that has been thought of by people who know about groups, computers, numbers, and stuff in your computers. My stuff is different than today's computer stuff because it will make them faster because my stuff won't talk to things close by and allow my computer to hold on to more numbers! While some of these have been found, the guys I'm interested in need to be looked at more by putting them in a place with no air, throwing light on them, and seeing what the little shock things do and where they go.
Right now, I have a new thing I'm looking at from a few doors down and seeing what it is made of. We know it moves shock things in a way computers will like, but we will soon see if it can move even more up and down shock things in very cool ways!
There are groups of things made from a big table seen on walls in our building. these groups will have one letter from the table, which is also found in living things, with four different things on it. this group helps move very tiny things, which have number down one from the smallest whole number, with up or down moment. this moment can change with right or left hand of the group of things from table. this makes a thing without needing the normal thing to make it. this idea can be used to make better things that can be used for putting away stuff that is found to give to computers.
Before i do that, i am learning how to put together things and make them work to find out stuff about the group of things from the big table seen on walls. i am also reading about this and other things to make my brain bigger.
I received my BSc in Chemistry from Isfahan University of Technology. In LabMonti™, I study quantum transport through mechani-cally controlled break junction experiments. In my free time, I enjoy playing the guitar, reading philosophi-cal novels, and playing board games.
I am an undergraduate working towards a BS in Biochemistry. My work centers around the mechanically controlled break junction project. When I am not working in the lab, I enjoy listening to music, playing games, and spending time with my friends.
I am an undergraduate at the University of Arizona on the premedical track while simultaneously working towards a BS in Chemistry. My work centers around the intercalation of layered 2D materials. When not working toward my academic goals, I hike/backpack, exercise, listen to music, or spend time with others.
When I was a child, I liked a movie about a man and his dog who went to space to see world problems. I wanted to be like him, but I don't have a dog; I just have a cat, and I'm not sure if it's dead or not. My cat lives in a box. I should use the way which a man who died in 1961 to find out is my cat dead or not.
I like using tiny things to pass the power or save the power. For using them we need to understand every important thing about that tiny stuff and their spot.
Actually by using that tiny thing to save power people can make a better space car. We can send more human to space. By using the same way that computers learn, we can make it easier and faster. First we put tiny things between two things to pass even smaller things, then use a computer that we told how to explain things to us. Telling the computer how to tell us this stuff is fun. I will do it.
Lights behind glass take a lot of power and get very hot. We want to find a way to make these smaller to fix this. My work uses my hands to get a job done instead of my brain. In my work, a tiny line with a break is broken over and over, sometimes with another part filling in the break. Power passes through this line, and we can find how much. We want to find a part that can give us the highest use for our powered computers and stuff. I have run this with parts that are not normal and easy to have, although we did not get as much power as we thought. It was hard to see how well the parts showed up, and they did not work as well as we expected.
While others continue this with new pieces and parts, I am working to make a box for it to keep it from outside forces. I am making ideas from my mind and making them from hot matter, and I will have to try a few times. I also need to find which water-like thing works with our part, that can also be held in the box the longest. In order to end my time, I am writing a book on what I did, as well as helping the next one of me learn the job and field.
I am a college student who does work in the field of matter and how very small things move. I work on putting very small things that are even into matter that is made up of layer on top of layer. More exactly, I put small bright brown things into the layer spaces of a larger grey thing. The little bright brown things are down four and right one one on the ordered stuff table. The grey thing is cool since it is very good at letting stuff move on its skin but not letting that same stuff move inside its skin. This is very cool because even if the grey thing is changed in some way this still happens. I want to make this grey thing get waves that you can not see. These waves are made up of what powers a computer or TV. These waves are also made from the stuff that the grey thing can have move on its skin but not inside. This grey thing with the small brown things in its layer spaces may not be important on its own, but what I learn could be used on different stuff down the line.
I graduated from the United States Mili-tary Academy with a Bachelor of Science in Physics in 2015. After a short career in the Army, I am now a graduate stu-dent in the Applied Math program at UofA. My work with LabMonti centers around approaches to understand and control the stochas-tic nature of single molecule experi-ments. In my free time I enjoy spen-ding time with my wife and two boys, reading, and treasure hunting.
I am an undergraduate at the University of Arizona working towards a BS in Chemistry. I am working on the mechanically controlled break junction project. Outside of the lab I like hiking and camping, watching movies with friends, and reading distopian and other novels.
I’m an undergraduate at UChicago studying chemistry and molecular engineering. In LabMonti™, I use programming and computation to study hidden behaviors in quantum transport. In my free time, I enjoy reading, gaming, walking my dog Bella, and going to the gym!
I am interested in things that happen by chance. When you put together several things that happen by chance, the thing you see at the end becomes hard to explain by the things you saw at the start. This is even harder if there are things you can't see in the middle that also change the thing you see at the end. One use of this thinking is the study of very very small things that we can't see. These very small things can run into each other or even stick together. When they stick together, it is possible that stuff that shocks can move through the very small things. The stuff that shocks shows up as a number on a computer. This number should tell us how good the very small things are at shocking, but it is not that simple.
Because we can't see the very small things, we have to try to understand what the very small things are doing. By chance, there might be two very small things, which could cause two times the shock number. By chance there could also be positions in which the very small things shock better or worse, which also changes the shock number. So, without seeing these very small things, I try to understand what the small things are doing using only their shock numbers. I do this by thinking of different sets of things that can happen to the very small things by chance, and see what shock numbers these sets cause.Very small things can also shock when they are not even stuck together, which makes this problem harder. When very small things get close together, there is a chance that one very small thing can send its shock to the other. This act is called boring. Since very small things can bore their shock to things that are close but not stuck to them, I have to think about what even more of the very small things are doing to understand how good they are at shocking.Another thing that makes this problem harder is noise. Noise is caused by parts of the computer or by other very small things that we can't see that do stuff to the shock numbers. There is also something called shot noise. This type of noise is caused by our very small things sharing their shock to other things faster or slower at any moment. This can make it look like there are two very small things sending their shock, when it is only one very small thing.
I am working on a cell that has wet stuff in it which will make the controlled breaking box have less outside stuff. The controlled breaking box has a piece of a hair like thing that breaks in half. The hair like thing has power going through it. Most of the time the power has to go through the hair like thing or something like it, but sometimes it will jump across. As the two halves move away from each other a small bit of the stuff we want can get in between. When the stuff we want gets in between the hair like thing, the power going through the hair thing will go through the little bit of stuff we put in between as well. With that we can see how well the power going through the hair like thing can go through the stuff we want in between. The little bit of stuff it too tiny to see so we know it is in the right place because the power going through the hair gets to the other side. But because the power will just jump across sometimes we have to be sure that the power getting across is getting through the stuff we want and not just jumping across. We do this by looking at how much power is going through as we move the two pieces away and make a hot-cold picture with it. If the hot-cold picture has a line going across we know it is because the power is going through the tiny bit of stuff we want in between the hair like thing. However, outside stuff we do not want can get in the way of the little bit of stuff we want to go in between the hair like stuff. This will not only make it hard to get the tiny bit of stuff we want but also will change how much power is going though. This will make it harder to get the tiny bit of stuff there and know when it is there. That is why I am helping to make a cell that has wet stuff inside to keep the stuff we want inside while keeping the stuff we do not want outside. The inside stuff we want will be inside of the wet stuff, while the cell will keep the outside stuff outside.
I try to make sense of what happens when we pass really really small things through slightly smaller things. The stuff we get when we pass very small things through slightly bigger things does not tell us all we need to know. I am making a thing on a computer that will allow us to know more about what happens when we pass these small things through slightly bigger things.
Also, I draw things on computers to try to find the small thing that will pass the most smaller things through it. I put even smaller things onto the already small thing that change how the small thing works, and see how that changes how well smaller things can pass through the small thing.
