Facilities
Scattering type Scanning Near-field Optical Microscopy from neaspec:
Simultaneous record of topography and optical image, using AFM tips acts as an antenna enhancing the electric fields in the gap.
Pseudo-Heterodyne Michelson interferometer for background free detection: modulation to higher harmonics of the tapping amplitude allowed; Simultaneous record of amplitude and phase information.
Microfluidic/Nanofluidic integrated electrical measurements platform:
precise flow control and modulation.
ultralow noise electrical measurements enabled by lock-in technique developed inside the group.
Nano-fabrication (NGI cleanroom facilities available) and characterization facilities located at the NGI cleanroom: Photo lithography, E-beam lithography, E-beam evaporator, Sputterer, Reactive Ion Etcher, SEM, AFM, FIB, Raman Spectroscopy, Ellipsometry, etc.
Cryostat for electronic transport measurements (images from internet, real lab is messier than this ;-)
Other unconventional intrument platforms include:
Cryogenic/high temperature Raman spectroscopy (3 K - 1000 K temperature range)
CVD facilities for growning bespoke 2D crystals
Custom-made ionic transport measurements platform
