Dr. Emil Prodan, professor of physics at Yeshiva University’s Stern College for Women, recently published an article in Physical Review B. Titled “Effect of strong disorder on three-dimensional chiral topological insulators: Phase diagrams, maps of the bulk invariant, and existence of topological extended bulk states,” the article explores topological phase transitions and strong disorder effects for 3-dimensional topological insulations. Carolyn Fine ‘14S, an pre-engineering major at Stern College for Women, contributed to the research and article as Prodan’s research fellow, supported by a five-year $425,000 CAREER grant from the National Science Foundation.
