Quantification of Interfacial Electron-Phonon Coupling from Photoemission Replica Bands in a High-Tc Superconductor
The PARADIM research team has developed a system to transfer sensitive samples from ultrahigh vacuum directly into an inert environment glovebox for transport to the Advance Light Source for beamline ARPES measurements.
1st Forum on NSF-DMR Materials Innovation Platforms
Materials Innovation Platforms (MIPs): are user facilities dedicated to accelerating materials discovery by providing a community of practitioners with access to cutting edge tools in theory, synthesis, and characterization and the ability to share knowledge effortlessly. MIPs are funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and are freely available to users from universities and national laboratories in the United States—from scientists just beginning their careers to seasoned experts—from all institutions.:
“Band-Structure Engineering” of Quantum Materials to Create a new Superconductor
One Materials-by-design commonly starts with first principles theory to identify materials with desired properties. The significant energetic contribution of electron-electron interactions, however, makes it difficult for theory to accurately predict quantum materials. Experimental tools like ARPES that measure electronic band structure directly used in combination with synthesis tools like MBE make it possible to enter the materials-by-design loop from a different on-ramp and navigate quantum materials to achieve desired properties.
