Special Postdoctoral Research Fellow
Oak Ridge National Lab
和光市, Saitama, United States
Fehmi Sami Yasin is currently a Special Postdoctoral Researcher in Dr. Xiuzhen Yu's Electronic States Microscopy Research Team at the Center for Emergent Matter Science (CEMS), RIKEN. Fehmi's academic career has taken him from his hometown in New Jersey through a B.S. in Physics at Westminster College in Salt Lake City, UT, then a Ph.D. in Physics at the University of Oregon in Eugene, OR, to a yearlong fellowship at Hitachi's Center for Exploratory Research in rural Hatoyama, Japan, before starting as a post-doc at RIKEN in Wako, Japan. A graduate of Dr. Benjamin McMorran's Electron Physics laboratory, Fehmi's research has focused on the fascinating interaction between free electrons and matter. He helped develop scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM) holography and its variant, flexible STEM holography. He has also authored work performing experiments and simulations of off-axis electron holography, HRTEM, differential phase contrast (DPC) STEM, STEM HAADF, and Lorentz TEM. Recently awarded a Special Postdoctoral Research Fellowship and Incentive Research Project Fellowship, Fehmi has several active research projects imaging magnetic spin texture dynamics and transformations under several external stimuli including temperature gradients and electric currents. In addition to physics, he loves climbing mountains in his spare time, both as an excuse to disconnect for several days and to escape the wet summer heat of Tokyo.
