Rongrong Qi - Postdoctoral researcher in physics
I am Rongrong Qi, currently a postdoctoral researcher in the Robertson group at the University of Warwick since July 2024. My research focuses on ferroelectric 2D materials, utilizing in situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to investigate their properties and applications. This cutting-edge work aims to deepen the understanding of how these materials behave at the atomic level, with potential implications for advanced electronic devices. I completed my PhD in Condensed Matter Physics at the University of Manchester, where I explored the properties of quantum magnetic devices and angstrom-scale fluidics under the supervision of Professor Radha Boya. My work in Manchester revolved around the fabrication and characterization of devices at the nanoscale, particularly focusing on spintronics and magnetism in two-dimensional materials. This experience honed my expertise in advanced microscopy techniques, device fabrication, and material characterization, which I now apply to my postdoctoral research. Before embarking on my PhD journey, I obtained my Master’s degree in Microelectronics and Solid-State Electronics from Jilin University, China, where I focused on developing gas and humidity sensors. I gained significant experience in semiconductor device fabrication and sensor technology, which laid the foundation for my interest in 2D materials and their applications in electronic devices. My passion for exploring the frontier of materials science continues to drive my research. I am particularly interested in how the unique properties of 2D materials can be leveraged to develop new technologies with far-reaching applications, from next-generation memory devices to flexible electronics.
