Our primary facilities include:
- The measurement lab
- BlueFors LD250 dilution refrigerator, 12 T solenoid magnet, ~7 mK base temperature
- Oxford Teslatron variable-temperature cryostat, 12 T solenoid magnet, 1.4 K base temperature
- Park NX7 atomic force microscope adapted for scanning van der Waals microscopy
- The fab lab
- HQ Graphene fully motorized 2D crystal assembly system
- Nikon LV150 optical microscope
- High-vacuum annealer furnace
- Spinner and wet bench
We use the Toronto Nanofabrication Centre and the University of Waterloo Quantum-Nano Fabrication and Characterization Facility to carry out nanofabrication process, with help from collaborators at the McMaster University Canadian Centre for Electron Microscopy.
Our measurement lab is up and running! Our cryostats enable us to measure electronic phenomena down to 10-2 K and in magnetic fields up to 12 T. In these extreme conditions, we will search for new physics and seek to understand what drives electronic ground states in a variety of 2D systems.
