INOX Quantum Materials Lab

At the INOX Quantum Materials Lab, we work on several forefront research areas. We build instruments — from compact cryostat measurement inserts to complex ultra-high vacuum systems such as molecular beam epitaxy units. We grow highly epitaxial topological insulator materials and investigate proximity effects when materials are synthesized layer-by-layer. The emergent interfacial properties provide rich platforms for discovering novel quantum states.
