Dr Peggy Schoenherr, Research Fellow, UNSW

Peggy Schoenherr is an experimentalist physicist with Prof Jan Seidel (UNSW), where she studies materials’ magnetic, electric and mechanical properties at the nanoscale using room-temperature and low-temperature atomic force microscopy.  The materials investigated span a wide range from superconductors to skyrmion systems to ferroic materials, with all of them potentially exhibiting the topological structures (domain walls, vortices, skyrmions) which FLEET is investigating. This falls within the Centre’s Research theme 1 topological materials and Enabling technology B nanodevice fabrication.
