Artwork I made from the diffuse scattering, calculated 3D-\(\Delta\)PDF, simulated 3D-\(\Delta\)PDF, and simulated short-range order (background) based on my single crystal X-ray diffraction study of the LnCd\(_3\)P\(_3\) family of compounds in collaboration with Dr. Juan Chamorro.

The high-pressure laser floating zone furnace, “LOKII”, for which I led development.
A crystal of Sr\(_2\)IrO\(_4\) which I grew in the high-pressure laser floating zone furnace. To my knowledge, it’s the largest Sr\(_2\)IrO\(_4\) crystal in the world!
My work on the high-pressure laser floating zone furnace was featured in the photography and content of the Quantum Quest article of the UCSB Magazine.
