Facilities

• Ultra-high vacuum (UHV) molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) system: (low 1E-10 torr)

This system features unique capabilities of growing refractory metal compounds including tungsten etc., and a UHV dock for suitcases.

• Hybrid MBE-Ion Milling system: (< 1E-9 torr)

This custom designed SVT system features in-situ fabrication of nanoscale devices with UHV docking units for suitcases.

• Customer designed glovebox:

This custom designed VTI glovebox interconnects the UHV experiments with conventional glovebox experiments with UHV docking for suitcases.

(cost share with Prof. Joshua Lui, Prof. Nathan Gabor, and Prof. Yongtao Cui at UCR)

• mK quantum transport and tunneling spectroscopy system

This mK temperature, high magnetic field cryogenic system features low noise filtering electronics for quantum transport and tunneling spectroscopy experiments.
