EXPERIENCE A NEW TYPE OF

MICROSCOPE

Research Plan I: Probing the Frontiers of Nanoscale Magnetism

Techniques:

  • Our group studies changes in nanoscale magnetism using four- dimensional scanning transmission electron microscopy (4D-STEM) and Lorentz microscopy
  • We apply local electromagnetic fields and temperatures to observe structure and magnetic changes at atomic resolution

Impact:

Understanding the relationship between magnetism and structure is important for future microelectronics, spintronics and quantum computing technologies.
