Jungpil Seo

Jungpil Seo is a Visiting Graduate Student Researcher in the Electron Physics Group.  He received B.S., M.S., and Ph. D. degrees in Physics from Seoul National University, Korea. His doctoral research, performed under the supervision of Professor Y. Kuk, focused on the development of spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy (STM).  He is currently a Postdoctoral Researcher with Professor Ali Yazdani at Princeton University, studying topological insulators with STM in collaboration with Joseph Stroscio at the CNST.
