Robert Moore III, received his B.S. (Magna Cum Laude) in Mechanical Engineering from Tennessee Technological University, Cookeville, TN in 1994. He spent five years in the navy on the submarine USS Alaska, returning to school in 2001 at the University of Washington, Seattle, WA where he received a M.S degree in Physics in 2002. In the fall of 2002 he enrolled in the graduate program in physics at UTK and graduated with his Ph.D in 2006. His thesis involved the study of the surface electronic, structural and dynamical properties of surface of transition metal oxides. His thesis titled “The Manifestation of Broken Symmetry: The Surface Phases of Ca2-xRuO4” was recognized by the UTK physics department with the Fowler-Marion Outstanding Graduate Student Award. Below are three papers originating from his thesis:
After completing his thesis he moved to Stanford University to work as a postdoctoral fellow with Professor Z. X. Shen. He is now a staff member at SLAC. |
