Research Interest:
The Laboratory for Oxide Research and Education (LORE) led by Dr. Abiade works on various aspects of thin film growth, processing and characterization. We are particularly interested in the pulsed laser deposition (PLD) growth of oxide thin films and multilayers for thermoelectric devices and other energy related research. We are also interested in oxides for electronic devices and oxide hydrophobic materials. In LORE, we are also heavily involved in the mentoring of individuals from diverse backgrounds. We view these activities as a synergistic component of the LORE misson. Minimum time commitment in hours per week: 5 Qualifications of a Student:
Students should be self-motivated and willing to learn about various areas including those outside the realm of their regular course material. Brief Summary of what is expected from the student:
Students should be able to work well with other students in the research group and the principle investigator. The student would be expected to participate in group meetings and prepare summaries of their work as oral or written presentations.
