Overall Project Details

Title of the Project Planar tunneling spectroscopy of Heavy Fermion superconductors and topological Insulators

Project Keywords Superconductors; Topological insulators, Condensed Matter Experiment

Are you currently looking for research assistants? Yes

Number of Research Assistants Needed 1

Relevant Research Assistant Major(s) Physics, Chemistry, Material Science and Engineering

Project Location: National High Magnetic Field Laboratory

If the project location is off campus, does the research assistant(s) need to provide their own transportation? FSU Buses (Innovation)

Please select the choice that most accurately describes your expectations for the research assistant(s): Partially Remote

Approximately how many hours a week would the research assistant(s) need to work? 6-8

Roughly what time frame do you expect research assistant(s) to work? During business hours

Overall Research Project Description The student will be involved in a range of experimental activities primarily focusing on fabrication of planar tunnel junction to understand the behavior of superconductors and topological insulators. The student will gain knowledge about thin film processing, vacuum techniques and low temperature physics. The project will provide a deep insight to the student about the mechanism of superconductivity in unconventional superconductors

Research Tasks Student is supposed to do hands-on thin film growth and measurements on tunnel junctions. The project includes learning the data collection using Matlab and data analysis.

Skills that research assistant(s) may need: A basic knowledge of physics is required. Basic knowledge about MatLab programming will be helpful but not required.

Mentoring Philosophy As a mentorship group, our philosophy to assign the task according to interest and strength of the mentees by which student's learning can be maximised.
