New laboratory capabilities for THz magneto-optics!

April 6, 2016

Yue Huang, Brown University postdoctoral research associate and a member of the Mittleman Lab research team, shown next to the Lake Shore Cryotronics 8500 Series THz system for material characterization installed in the lab. Huang’s current research interests lie in the optical properties of Dirac semimetals and iron-based superconductors using THz spectroscopy in magnetic fields.

We have just acquired our new magneto-optic cryostat with terahertz spectroscopy integrated into the magnet bore.  We've worked with engineers at Lakeshore Cryotronics to get this system, the first commercial version of its kind, installed here at Brown. We're looking forward to many exciting new results. Please contact us with any questions.
