Variable Temperature Optical Scan-probe Platform for Research on Emergent Quantum Condensed Matter Systems

Abstract

We request DURIP support for the acquisition of a variable temperature scanning probe platform, optimized for nanoscale spectroscopy. This system will transform the materials and device research of these DoD funded PIs in the Harvard and MIT research communities and will help provide experimental guidance to theoretical efforts in materials design. The new instrumentation, capable of measurements with temperatures ranging down to 10 K, will widen the array of emergent condensed matter phenomena which can be studied and will greatly enhance the quality of ongoing research, as well as the research-related education, and workforce development activities.
