Advanced scattering experiments on quantum materials
My undergraduate background is in physics, but I also have some experience in mathematics, chemistry, and biology. My research is in applying machine learning to data generated by the process of ultra-fast electron diffraction.
Byron Freelon, assistant professor of physics, has been named a Fulbright Scholar for 2024-25, expanding his efforts to promote the representation of Black physicists while building the scientific workforce needed to interpret data produced by X-ray synchrotrons.
Uche is from Enugu state in Nigeria where he graduated from the University of Jos with a bachelor’s degree in physics and a master’s degree in physics from Auburn University. He joined the eXn group at the University of Houston in the summer of 2021. He is interested in characterizing the structural and magnetic properties of strained 2D materials using x and neutron scattering techniques. In his spare time, he enjoys playing soccer, playing video games, cooking, and spending time with his friends and family.
