Speaker: Dr. Pavel Kornilovich, HP Corvallis and OSU Physics
Abstract: The puzzle of High-Temperature Superconductors (HTSC) remains unresolved almost 40 years after its discovery in 1986. I will argue that it is because HTSC lies between the standard Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) limit that describes simple metals and the “Real-Space”… Read more
Speaker: Prof. John F. Wager, Oregon State Univsersity, School of EECS
Abstract: Quantum mechanical electron tunneling is proposed as the mediator of chemical bonding. Covalent, polar covalent, ionic, and hydrogen bonds all rely on quantum mechanical tunneling, but the nature of tunneling differs for each bond type. Covalent bonding involves… Read more

Speaker: Prof. Kayla Nguyen, University of Oregon, Physics
Abstract: The advent of electron microscopy has revolutionized materials discovery. However, one of the main barriers is the cost of expensive aberration correcting lenses for atom-by-atom imaging.
