Graduate Research Assistant
University of Oregon Dept. of Physics
University of Oregon, Oregon, United States
I am a PhD Candidate in the McMorran Lab, Department of Physics, University of Oregon, USA.
I study novel spin textures in magnetic materials and my current research focusses on magnetic thin films, in which chiral textures are stabilized by competing dipole and exchange interactions rather than the DMI. This allows for a wider range of textures, and for a mixture of chiralities at once.
We primarily use Lorentz TEM to gather real-space magnetic induction images and track spin texture evolution as we vary the applied field. We also use our specialized SEMPA instrument to directly image the surface magnetization.
In addition to being an adept TEM user, I developed the ltempy Python package for image processing, simulation, plotting, and magnetic reconstruction of Lorentz TEM data.
Outside of lab, I enjoy learning web development, hiking, playing soccer, and I am a long-time violinist.
