Quantum point contacts in the 2D topological insulator Cd3As2
Simon Munyan is a graduate research assistant in the Stemmer group. He is interested in studying quantum transport in topological materials. Currently, his work focuses on the emergent 2D topological insulator (2DTI) state in thin films of CdaAs2. He synthesizes thin films using molecular beam epitaxy and patterns them into nanoscale devices, which he investigates through cryogenic magnetotransport measurements. During his Ph.D., Simon hopes to further our understanding of coherent quantum transport in topological materials.
