Keunhong Min is a postdoctoral researcher at the Nanoscale Processes and Measurements Group at NIST. He received his B.S. and Ph.D. in Physics from Sejong University, Korea. He had worked as a student researcher at the Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science. His doctoral research focused on magnetic tunnel junctions for tunneling magnetoresistance and spin transfer torque with two-dimensional materials, developing device fabrication methods, and transport measurement. At NIST, Keunhong has been working with Joseph Stroscio to develop clean fabrication methods for the NIST milli-kelvin scanning probe microscope (SPM) to open the playground of various quantum materials. He has been studying graphene and quantum anomalous Hall (QAHE) systems, using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM).
