Dr. Hang Chi is a Canada Research Chair in Quantum Electronic Devices and Circuits, focusing on (i) magnetically proximitized topological interfaces for building next-generation magnetic memory/logic devices with superior performance and efficiency, as well as (ii) magnetic superconducting heterostructures for non-reciprocal quantum transport and quantum information & computation. Chi Lab combines ab initio simulations; crystal growth, thin film and heterostructure deposition and micro/nanodevice fabrication; structural, magnetic, transport, advanced neutron, muon, scanning tunneling characterizations of extraordinary surface and interfaces.
