Principle Investigator:

Asst. Prof. Ezekiel Johnston-Halperin

Dr. Johnston-Halperin, received his B.S. in physics from Case Western Reserve University in 1996, followed in 2003 by his Ph.D. in Physics at the University of California at Santa Barbara in the research group of Prof. David D. Awschalom. This work covered topics ranging from ultra-fast optical studies of spin dynamics in semiconductor materials to the synthesis of novel ferromagnetic semiconductor heterostructures via molecular-beam epitaxy (MBE). His postdoctoral studies at the California Institute of Technology in the research group of Prof. James R. Heath extended from 2003 to 2006 and covered a number of projects ranging from nanostructured materials and sublithographic patterning to integrating molecular and solid-state materials to form extremely dense electronic circuits. His current interests involve the integration of a number of traditionally distinct approaches to nanoscale synthesis to achieve comprehensive control of structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of materials at nanometer lengthscales.
