Dr Raymond McQuaid

School of Mathematics and Physics

Dr McQuaid’s research interest is in the functional properties of nanoscale oxide materials, specifically, in the fundamental dynamical behaviour of ferroic domain walls as well as their influence on electrical and thermal transport phenomena. These studies typically involve use of novel scanning probe microscopy techniques, electrical characterisation and low-temperature setups.
