During his presentation, Dr. Liu explained his team’s experimental research activities, including bottom-up synthesis of artificial quantum materials, creation of quantum simulators via single molecule manipulations, and atomic-scale visualization of superconducting and topological quantum matter via low-temperature scanning probe microscopy.
Cooling accounts for about 15 percent of global energy consumption. Conventional clear windows allow the sun to heat up interior spaces, which energy-guzzling air-conditioners must then cool down. But what if a window could help cool the room, use no...
Eight students were recognized for presentation of their research during the poster session at the 7th annual Notre Dame-Purdue Soft Matter and Polymers Symposium. The event was held in Jordan Hall of Science on October 29. This collaborative…
This collaborative project aims to develop a method for imaging cerebral blood flow (CBF) to allow neuroscientists and neurologists to more clearly understand the complex link between neural activity and CBF.
Patrick Fay, professor of electrical engineering at the University of Notre Dame, has been awarded an endowed professorship. He was named Notre Dame’s Stinson Professor of Nanotechnology, effective September 1, 2022.
