معرفی
Leslie M. Schoop is a Professor of Chemistry at Princeton University, affiliated with the Frick Laboratory. Her research focuses on the intersection of chemistry and physics, particularly in discovering quantum materials with exotic properties. She leads the Schoop Lab, which employs a synthesis-driven approach combining chemical principles, electronic structure calculations, and advanced characterization techniques to engineer topological semimetals, charge density waves, and 2D materials. Key collaborations include the Princeton Physics Department and institutions worldwide.
Her honors include the NSF CAREER Award (2022), Sloan Fellowship (2021), and Packard Fellowship (2020). Research interests span inorganic chemistry, materials science, and spectroscopy, with emphasis on designing materials for quantum computing and energy applications. Notable contributions include chemical exfoliation methods for 2D materials and studies on axial Higgs modes in RTe3.
Her lab’s work integrates synthesis, theory, and experimentation, yielding breakthroughs in superconducting inks, magnetic nanosheets, and novel topological phases. The lab collaborates with the Princeton Materials Institute and emphasizes interdisciplinary approaches to quantum material discovery.
