Julian & Yannick conducting lab research
REU student Julian Abreu, and his graduate mentor Yannick Eatmon, testing material conductivities as a function of mechanical stress!
REU students, Timothy and Izzy conducting research in the labs.
REU student, Timothy Zhao (left), with his postdoc mentor, Allyson McGaughey, testing Polymer Brush fabrication. REU student, Izzy McClements (right), testing of the molecular weight of polymers sympathized.
REU student, Aman in the lab
REU student Aman Eujayl, presenting a coiled black filament. She used a 3D printer to run tests on filament coiling instability in the Liquids and Elasticity Lab.
REU student, Mauro Patimo in the lab.
REU student Mauro Patimo, conducting research lab tests with a femtosecond laser which he uses to cut a slide of glass. Mauro also used a laser to focus the light on one point in order to transform the air into plasma. He did so by using the TAG lens created by Princeton University's own, Dr. Craig B. Arnold. Mauro then moved the light dot back and forth. At the end of his lab test he used the 3D microscope to determine the shape and depth of the cut in the glass!
REU student Amir Ibrahim, in the Physics lab.
REU student Amir Ibrahim, in the Physics lab conducting research under Condensed Matter Physics including 2D Quantum Materials. Amir can be seen exfoliating boron nitride onto silicon wafers and checking the wafers under a microscope to find flakes!
