In collaboration with Professor Qing Hu'sresearch group from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the USA, our research team recently demonstrated terahertz quantum cascade lasers (THz QCLs) that established a world record for high-temperature operation.

Bohdan Khromets, a master's student in Physics in the QNC-MBE Group, has just successfully defended his MSc thesis! Because of his great research and outstanding thesis, Bohdan was also nominated for the Dean of Science Award. The title of Bohdan's thesis is Heterostructure development and quantum control for semiconductor qubits.

Congratulations, Bohdan!

Peyton Shi, a PhD Candidate in Physics in the QNC-MBE Group, has just successfully defended her doctoral thesis with Category 1! Peyton is the first PhD in Physics in the group. The title of Peyton's thesis is Molecular beam epitaxial growth of InSb quantum well heterostructures for applications in topological quantum computing.

Congratulations, Dr. Shi!

Chris Deimert, a PhD Candidate in ECE in the QNC-MBE Group, has just successfully defended his doctoral thesis with Category 1! Because of his great research and outstanding thesis, Chris was also nominated for the Distinguished PhD Dissertation Award. The title of Chris's thesis is Growth of graded quantum wells for THz polaritonics.

Congratulations, Dr. Deimert!

Bohdan Khromets and Trevor Blaikie, MSc students in the QNC-MBE Group, have been awarded WIN Nanofellowships in the 2020-2021 competition. The criteria considered for the awardees included their academic performance, publications and presentations, quality and relevance of the proposal to nanotechnology and etc. This fellowship is valued at $10 000.

Congratulations, Bohdan and Trevor!

Professor Zbig Wasilewski, the Principal Investigator (PI) of the QNC-MBE group, has been awarded the MBE Innovator Award at the 35th North American Conference on Molecular Beam Epitaxy (NAMBE 2019) in Ketchum, USA. The MBE Innovator Award is to recognize individuals whose innovative work has significantly advanced the field of MBE. Prof. Wasilewski was honored

Ida Sadeghi and Peyton Shi, PhD students in the QNC-MBE group, won the Best Student Poster Awards at the 19th Canadian Semiconductor Science and Technology Conference held at the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon, Canada.

Congratulations, Ida and Peyton!
