Correlated Electrons
& Scanning Probe Microscopy
Jenny Hoffman joined the Harvard physics department as an assistant
professor in January 2005. Research in our laboratory revolves around
scanning probe microscopies of novel materials. We are designing and
constructing three low-temperature microscopes to measure nanoscale
electronic and magnetic propoerties. Our initial efforts are: scanning
tunneling microscopy of unconventional superconductors (including high
temperature superconductors and the quasi-one-dimensional organic
superconductors), spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy of
nanoscale magnetic materials, and magnetic force microscopy of vortex
systems.
Interested in this work?
Harvard undergrads should see research
funding opportunities, and arrange to talk to Prof.
Hoffman and visit the lab.
Harvard graduate students (or admitted prospectives) should talk to
Prof.
Hoffman and visit the lab.
Prospective graduate students should see the admissions
information.
