Hello and welcome to my page!

My name is Torrey Levin-Russell and I have been working with the Ismail-Beigi group as an undergraduate researcher. Starting with the group in the summer of 2008 through the CRISP REU fellowship program, I have stayed on to further my research under the advisement of Dr. Ismail-Beigi and his condensed matter theory group.

My research consists of an effective mass modeling of the STO/LAO interface (n-type primarily) with the incorporation of first principles data generated by other members of the team. While a relatively simple theoretical description, effective mass theory represents a complementary technique to DFT calculations.
