Laura Collins presented at the 2016 APS March Meeting a talk titled “Imaging the Electronic States of a Two-Dimensional Assembled Quasicrystal”. In this work, done in collaboration with Tom, Rochelle and David, Laura created a synthetic quasicrystal based upon the rhombus Penrose tiling and imaged the electronic states. Laura also successfully passed her candidacy […]
Our lab members Tom Witte (undergrad) and Laura Collins (grad) build a atomic scale monogram of our university. The ND design was created with 47 carbon monoxide molecules arranged one-at-a-time on the surface of a copper crystal. The field of view of the image is just 12 nanometers! The ripples seen in the […]
