Michael S. Crosser
Professor

Graf Hall 217A

I study how charges move through atomically thin materials, such as a form of carbon called graphene. I regularly collaborate with students to collect and analyze data. Most recently, I have created a science podcast called "Crisscrossing Science."

Education

B.S., physics and mathematics, Centre College, Danville, KY
Ph.D., physics, Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI

Academic interests:

Studying the transport properties of graphene field-effect transistors (GFETs) to be used as biosensors.
