Mapping Atomic Scale Topological Excitations in Quantum Materials

The aim of her research project will involve exploration of novel spin texture in 2D magnetic quantum materials and understand the effect of various parameters such as thickness, strain and interfaces using advanced Lorentz transmission electron microscopy. The work will involve a combination of advanced simulations for electron scattering and machine-learning to be able to map spin textures at atomic scale using Lorentz scanning transmission electron microscopy. The experimental component of the work will involve suitable fabrication of electron transparent samples and acquiring experimental data sets using the microscopes within MSD as well as at CNM.
