[edit] About Me

I am currently an undergraduate student majoring in Physics and Mathematics. My current research program involves quantum transport theory of electrons in carbon nanostructures, such as single- or multi-layer graphene, bulk graphite, and carbon nanotubes, looking at spin-dependent properties and the Zitterbewegung effect on a single electron. Previous research topics include studying ionization of atoms and molecules in ultra intense laser fields, and separating and classifying their multiple ionization mechanisms.
