Description

PhD in Solid State Physics from Arizona State University in 1995.

He received a Fellowship from the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science to conduct research at the Institute for Materials Research, Tohoku University, Japan from 1995 to 1996, and held a staff research associate position at the University of California, Los Angeles from 1996 to 1999.

He joined the Physics department at University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee as an Assistant Professor in 1999, and was promoted to full Professor in 2007.

He joined the Department of Physics and Astronomy at West Virginia University as Robert L. Carroll Professor of Physics in 2016.

"We are exploring molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) growth of quantum materials, including topological insulators, Weyl semimetals, Fe-based superconductors, and quantum magnets (i.e., kagome- and alter-magnets), and characterization using in situ low-temperature and high magnetic field scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy (STM/S) and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) to gain new insights into these quantum phases of matter from the interplay of strain, proximity, correlations, and spin-orbit interactions."
