I am a Royal Society University Research Fellow, a Fellow of St John’s College, and a member of the Device Materials Group in the Department of Materials Science and Metallurgy at the University of Cambridge. My research within the Device Materials Group is concerned with investigating the proximity coupling between superconducting and magnetic materials in thin-film multilayers and in heterostructure devices. Due to the weak coupling of these materials, samples are grown with sub-nm thickness control and state-of-the-art nanofabrication techniques are used to create nanoscale superconductor / magnetic devices.
