Chun Ning "Jeanie" Lau is an American physicist who is a Professor of Quantum Materials at Ohio State University. Her research considers materials for quantum technologies, including Van der Waals materials and superconductors. She was elected a Fellow of the American Physical Society in 2017.

Early life and education

edit

Lau studied physics at the University of Chicago. She moved to Harvard University for graduate research. After completing her doctorate, Lau joined Hewlett Packard Labs, where she worked as a research associate.[citation needed]

Research and career

edit

Lau joined the University of California, Riverside as a professor in 2004.[1] Whilst at Riverside, she accidentally realized that when stacking three layers of graphene, depending on how the layers were stacked, the structure would behave either as a conductor or an insulator.[2] She made use of Raman spectroscopy to understand the precise stacking orders, and predicted that enhanced electronic interactions between layers with specific geometries were responsible for the formation of a band gap.[2]

Lai moved to Ohio State University as a professor in 2017. Shestudies how quantum confinement impacts the electronic properties and works on topological superconductors and the fabrication of 2D materials with Moiré patterns.[3]

Chun Ning "Jeanie" Lau és una física estatunidenca i professora de Materials Quàntics a la Ohio State University. La seva investigació es centra en materials per a tecnologies quàntiques, incloent materials de van der Waals i superconductors. Va ser elegida Fellow de l'American Physical Society el 2017.

Vida i carrera

edit

Lau va estudiar física a la University of Chicago. Va fer el seu doctorat a Harvard University i després va treballar com a associada de recerca a Hewlett Packard Labs.[citation needed]

Lau va començar a treballar com a professora a la University of California, Riverside el 2004.[1] Mentre treballava a Riverside, va descobrir accidentalment que empilant tres capes de grafè, depenent de com estaven empilades, la seva estructura es comportava com a conductor o com a aïllant.[2] Va fer servir l'espectroscòpia Raman per entendre les ordres precises d'empilament i va predir que les interaccions electròniques millorades entre les capes amb geometries específiques eren les responsables de la formació d'un forat de banda.[2]

Lau es va traslladar a la Ohio State University com a professora el 2017. Estudia com la confinació quàntica afecta les propietats electròniques i treballa en superconductors topològics i en la fabricació de materials bidimensionals amb patrons de Moiré.[3]
