Research

4th year Graduate student studying for a Condensed Matter DPhil.

Based at the 91探花 and Diamond Light Source, my academic supervisors are Professor Amalia Coldea and Dr Timur Kim.

Within the topic of Superconductivity, my research is focused on the nematic phase of iron-based Superconductors. These strongly correlated materials can stabilize different competing electronic phases from which superconductivity emerges.

The techniques that I am using to explore this research include: Transport, Magnetotransport, Elastoresistance, X-ray Diffraction and Angle-Resolved-PhotoEmission-Spectroscopy (ARPES). These experiments are performed while applying strain to the sample, which couples to the nematic order parameter.

Research interests

Superconductivity
Angle-Resolved-PhotoEmission-Spectroscopy
Nematicity
Band-structure Calculations
Elastoresistivity
Magnetoresistance
