Dr. Mehmet Egilmez

Assistant Professor
PhD in Physics, University of Alberta, Canada

Prior to his current position, Mehmet Egilmez worked as a research associate at University of Cambridge, UK, for more than three years. He has expertise in oxide thin film growth and characterization of their electrical and magnetic properties. He has studied many oxide materials with particular emphasis on magnetic/superconducting thin film hetero-structures. His research benefits from various measurement techniques, ranging from standard magneto-transport measurements to sophisticated Muon spin rotation/resonance measurements. He is the author/co-author of over 50 publications.
