Dr. Mohottala

 

 

Dr. Hashini Mohottala, Dr. Hashini Mohottala: Assistant professor of Physics
BS University of Peradeniya Sri Lanka: MS & PhD, University of Connecticut

Research interest: Condensed matter experimental Physics. Focus on the local properties of highly correlated electron systems, such as high temperature superconductors. Interested in studying both bulk materials and thin films. Some of the experimental probes used to study these internal properties are SQUID magnetometer, muon spin rotation and diffraction studies. Hashini collaborates with the condensed matter research group at the University of Connecticut.
