Research Description

Dr. Mundy’s research group designs novel materials at the atomic scale. They use a technique — molecular-beam epitaxy — which is akin to atomic spray painting. This method allows them to build up novel materials, atomic-layer by atomic-layer, and to construct metastable materials that cannot be synthesized by other techniques. They are particularly interested in harnessing these new synthetic methods to explore novel phenomena in quantum materials and to develop materials for electronic applications.
