Awesome
Doctor Hauser is an amazing professor of physics. He's humorous, knowledgeable and works with you for your grade. If you have him as an option, do take his class.
Awesome
Professor Hauser gives extra credit at the beginning of the semester. This can help you leap from an entire half-letter grade like A- to A. He's funny and really catches the students' attention when teaching. He gives one homework set per week online and it has unlimited tries. Also, the final exam is optional for the class. However, if you want an A+ you will have to take the final.
Awesome
Professor Hauser is a relaxed one. His lectures were entertaining. He understands and cares about his students. He knows that physics is difficult and helps you a lot. He gives you a half-letter grade boost just to make an easy extra credit. His grading system is very generous too.

For physical studies of correlated electron systems and for realizing novel device concepts, electrostatic modulation of metal-insulator transitions (MITs) is desired. The inherently high charge densities needed to modulate MITs make this difficult to achieve. The high capacitance of ionic liquids are attractive but, voltages are needed that can be in excess of the electrochemical stability of the system. Here, we show temperature/resistivity data that suggest electrostatic modulation of the MIT temperature of NdNiO3 in a wide regime. However, additional voltammetric and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements demonstrate the electrochemical impact of the electrostatic doping approach with ionic liquids.

The authors have used a combination of monochromatized x-ray photoemission spectroscopy and Rutherford backscattering spectrometry to develop a protocol for determining bulk film stoichiometry and charge state of Sr2FeMoO6 epitaxial films These studies identify an optimum ion sputtering process for removing surface contaminants while avoiding preferential sputtering of film constituents or alteration of their characteristic valence states. For Sr2FeMoO6, low energy (500 eV), glancing incidence Ar+sputtering for short (tens of seconds) periods is successful in achieving stoichiometric compositions and characteristic charge states of the film constituents. The evolution of composition and valence state with sputtering provides a guide to measure stoichiometry and charge state of complex oxide thin films in general.
