Colloquium: Venkat Chandrasekhar: "Everything, Everywhere, all at once: The Complex Physics of Complex Oxide Heterostructures"

When: Friday, October 6, 2023
4:00 PM - 5:00 PM CT

Where: Technological Institute, L211, 2145 Sheridan Road, Evanston, IL 60208 map it

Audience: Faculty/Staff - Student - Post Docs/Docs - Graduate Students

Contact: Joan West   (847) 491-3645

Group: Physics and Astronomy Colloquia

Category: Academic

Description:

Heterostructures made from complex oxides show a dazzling variety of fundamental phenomena, including ferroelectricity, superconductivity, magnetism, spin-orbit interactions and topological effects, quite often simultaneously in the same device.  I will discuss a few of phenomena that we have investigated in heterostructures based on strontium titanate and potassium tantalate complex oxides, including the superconductor-insulator transition, tunable spin-orbit interactions and the topological nonlinear Hall effect.
