Research Advisor : Dr. Trevor
A. Tyson
Academic Profile :
Bachelor of Materials Science and Engineering
Master of Condensed Matter Physics
Ph. D. candidate
in Materials Science
Memberships : Member of
American Physics Society
Research Interest:
Condensed Matter Physics and Materials Science, especially
magnetic materials
Current Research Work :
He is conduction high pressure structural and
eletrical resistivity
measurements using diamond anvil cells. Structural
measurements are conducted by hard x-ray diffraction (60 KeV) at the
National Synchrotron Light Source. Transport measurements are
conducted
in-laboratory using a home-made Raman system with a
cryostat. Transition
metal oxides are being investigated over
the pressure range from 1 atm to
200,000 atm.
Zhiqiang is
conducting research on the structural and transport properties of
CMR material under magnetic field and high pressure. He is
trying to find the
relationship between field/pressure and electrical properties and structures.
By the result, we can find the suitable
materials for
magnetic
and pressure
sensors. Most of our experiments were done at NJIT,Brookhaven National Lab
and New Brunswick Rutgers. He is measuring resistivity
under magnetic field
or
pressure. In addition synchrotron XRD and EXAFS
methods are complement
by
magnetization
and heat
capacity measurements.
