معرفی
Jyoti Katoch is an Associate Professor at the Department of Physics, Carnegie Mellon University, since 2024. She previously served as Assistant Professor (2018–2024) and Research Scientist at Ohio State University (2016–2018). Her expertise lies in the experimental investigation of quantum materials, particularly two-dimensional systems and their heterostructures.
- Ph.D.: University of Central Florida (2014)
- B.S.: Panjab University, India (2004)
Her research focuses on manipulating electronic, optical, and spin properties of 2D materials through atomic-scale modifications (e.g., adatoms, heterostructures) and exploring emergent quantum phenomena. Techniques include molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) growth, in-situ low-temperature magneto-transport measurements, NanoARPES, Raman spectroscopy, and photoluminescence. Recent work highlights spin-splitting in WS2/h-BN heterostructures, trion-driven effects, and proximity exchange fields in graphene systems.
The most recent articles emphasize twisted bilayer graphene, spin-orbit coupling, van Hove singularities, and heterostructure engineering, reflecting her contributions to quantum materials and spintronics.
Scientific Awards:
- DOE Early Career Research Award (2019)
She leads the Katoch Research group, which applies unconventional techniques to study quantum transport and develop next-generation devices. Her work has been supported by grants linked to her DOE award and collaborations in Advanced Light Source facilities.
