Tim Kidd
Assistant Professor of Physics
e-mail: tim.kidd@uni.edu
Dr. Kidd performed both his undergraduate and graduate work at the
University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, receiving a Ph.D in physics
in 2002. He joined the physics department at the University of Northern
Iowa in 2005 after his postdoctoral work in the condensed matter physics
department at Brookhaven National Laboratory.
He has performed experimental research into a variety of low dimensional
condensed matter systems. His research has been based on the electronic
properties of such materials. These are the source of a wide variety
of exotic phases, such as density waves and unconventional superconductivity,
which are simply not found in macroscopic three dimensional systems.
His current research interests include utilizing dimensional constraints
and induced disorder to control and enhance the properties of low
dimensional materials for possible use in futuristic devices.
