Title: Design and Construction of a New Nickelate Superconductor
Host: Chao-Ming Jian
Abstract: Transition metal oxides exhibit almost every physical state known including photoconductivity, metallic conductivity, (high-temperature) superconductivity, colossal magnetoresistance, ferroelectricity, and ferromagnetism. Combined with the ability to epitaxially integrate these materials with silicon, they are leading candidates for applications spanning from photocatalysts to data storage. Here I will show how thin film epitaxy can be used to selectively stabilize materials which are not stable in the bulk form. I will show our results combining atomically-precise thin film deposition with picoscale electron microscopy imaging to stabilize a new nickelate superconductor.
