Introduction

I am a Ph.D. graduate of Professor Tai-Chang Chiang's research group in the Physics Department at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.  My research interests included the electronic effects on the growth and structure of nanoscale thin films, especially metal on semiconductor systems.  Our group is a member of the UNICAT collaboration at the Advanced Photon Source, Argonne National Laboratory, where I do most of my experiments.

I am currently employed by Seagate Technology in Minneapolis, MN.  You can contact me via email at my old MRL address: czoschke@mrl.uiuc.edu.
