Conducted research into the electron chemistry that occurs when EUV photons strike a photoresist creating electrons that alter the chemistry of the photoresist. Built experimental apparatus and ran experiments to better understand the physics and chemistry behind EUV lithography that will be used to make the next generation of computer chips. Work includes.

Analyzed the Raman spectra of sheets of graphene with the intent to determine the amount of contamination on the surface of the graphene. Different growth, transfer, and cleaning processes were compared to reach a level of contamination that would allow the graphene sheet to be introduced into a Class 1 cleanroom to make devices. Participated in a.
