Welcome, Lindsay Spence and Kathryn Novak, joining our lab! (Sept 14, 2025)
Welcome, Lindsay Spence and Kathryn Novak, joining our lab! (Sept 14, 2025)
Lindsay is a new graduate student in the Department of Physics and Astronomy, focusing on the exploration of new superconductors. She joined our group in the Summer of 2025. Kathryn is a senior in mechanical engineering, focusing on assembling the Molecule Imaging STM and using conducting AFM to investigate dopants in 2D semiconductors.

March 17 (2025) Smoking-gun evidence of the ferromagnetic order in V-doped of V-WSe2 is online on arxiv ([2503.11193] Electrical Spin-Flip Current Switching in Layered Diluted Magnetic Semiconductors for Ultralow-Power Spintronics).

After three years of hard work on the project, we finally published the manuscript in arxiv. In this work, we can observe the hysteresis of magnetoresistance in graphene/V-WSe2/graphene vertical heterostructure. Furthermore, two exciting phenomena were observed: i. the switchable non-saturated linear magnetoresistance to a standard parabolic magnetoresistance; and ii. the magnetic states can be controlled by applying a current across the device, thanks to the spin-transfer torques between ferromagnetic V-WSe2 layers, with the critical current being much lower than the normal bulk spin-transfer torque devices.

Together with Prof. Bingham's group, we were successful in bringing the SQUID back! This is important equipment for our collaborative research at the Department of Physics and Astronomy and the Frontier Institute for Research in Sensor Technologies (FIRST)!
