Dr. Nicholas Litombe received his PhD (2015) from Harvard University in experimental condensed matter physics. His research focused on lithographic patterning and characterization of high-temperature superconductors in the cuprate 214-family into nanostructures to probe dimension-limited superconductivity through transport measurements. His expertise is in low-temperature, low-noise measurements of strongly correlated systems. From 2015 to 2016, he was Post-Doctoral Fellow in Physics at the Department of Physics, Harvard University, United States. Currently he is a post-doctoral associate of the department. He is also a Science and Technology Policy Fellow at the Department of Energy's Advanced Manufacturing Office under the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE). In this role, he supports a portfolio focused on cleantech energy and innovation for energy-intensive manufacturing sectors in the United States. He holds a bachelor's degree in Applied Physics from the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences at Columbia University where he has also got trained in Applied Mathematics.
