Thermal Transport in Atomically Thin Materials with Erik Henriksen
Professor of Physics, Erik Henriksen from Washington University in St. Louis, will be presenting the IMSE Seminar on Thermal Transport in Atomically Thin Materials.
Inspired by the pursuit of quantum spin liquid-related phenomena in unusual magnetic materials, we are developing methods to measure thermal properties of single- and few layer as well as thicker flakes of atomically thin materials. We will introduce the Kitaev-type quantum spin liquid, review properties of the most promising material candidate to host it, and then motivate the need for thermal measurements and present our initial findings in magnetic materials.
