I am a graduate student at University of Illinois, pursuing my PhD in Physics. I am working as a Visiting Student Research Collaborator (VSRC) with Prof. Ali Yazdani at Princeton University, who moved from Illinois to Princeton in August 2005. I am currently interested in studying high-Tc Superconductivity with Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM).
It is a collaborative effort. Our main objective is to understand how Cooper pairs form in the high-Tc materials. We are also working on other correlated systems such as topological insulators (BiSb), calchogenides, FeAs-superconductors, etc.
Before this, I got my undergraduate degree from Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bombay, India.
