This Project Grant award for $245,246.00 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) will support research by Texas Tech University to study emergent surface and bulk states in correlated insulators. The project aims to systematically explore this class of quantum materials, building on prior work on samarium hexaboride, to better understand their unique electronic properties. The research team will conduct single crystal growth and electrical transport measurements, including the use of the inverted resistance technique and Corbino disk magnetotransport, to chart the materials and uncover the universal physical properties. This work will expand the understanding of correlated insulators and lay the foundation for their potential use in future electronic devices. The project period runs from January 1, 2026 to December 31, 2027.
