Yingying Wu

My research interests focus on magnetism and spintronics. Recently, I study the imprinting of magnetic skyrmions to neighboring layers in the heterostructure. My toolbox includes:

👏 Designer quantum devices, e.g. interface engineering between a ferromagnetic thin film and a transition metal dichalcogenide with strong spin orbit coupling

👏 Epitaxy growth, micro-fabrication and characterizations

👏 Electric/spin transport and capacitance measurements

👏 Extreme conditions: high DC fields and low temperature experiments below 300 milli-Kelvin at user facilities in the USA

👏 Collaborations on neutron scattering, Lorentz transmission electron microscopy, magnetic force microscopy and magneto-optic Kerr effect experiments
