Case Summary:
At NAILG, we are committed to delivering exceptional service to our clients. Our team is always prepared to go above and beyond when a case requires it. Since our founding, we have successfully assisted over 32,000 clients worldwide in obtaining case approvals through our meticulous work on their petitions. So when we got a request to file an NIW (National Interest Waiver) application on behalf of a Chinese research assistant, currently a PhD candidate in Physics, we made certain that he got the help he needed.
Thus, we put together a strong NIW petition package, including all the relevant information:
- As an expert in condensed matter physics, his proposed endeavor is to continue his research on investigating and engineering novel quantum phenomena in 2D materials and their heterostructures to design and fabricate next-generation devices for quantum computation and spintronics.
- His research was of great importance because it drove advancements in quantum computing technologies, enhancing the design and fabrication of spintronic devices, advancing national security by advancing quantum capabilities, and strengthening the U.S. competitive edge in global quantum research.
- In addition, his endeavor also has broad implications for the United States, where a National Security Memorandum in 2022 highlighted that the U.S.’s “continued technological and scientific leadership” depends on maintaining leadership in quantum computing.
- We showed that his research has been supported with funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF), which is reserved solely for research directed at advancing the national interest.
- We also added that his research in the field has been recognized by 2 recommenders who trusted his work would benefit the U.S. in the long run.
- Due to his knowledge and expertise in transport and optical studies of 2D quantum materials, he has been regularly invited to conduct peer reviews and has completed at least 9 reviews to date.
- His research has resulted in 5 peer-reviewed journal articles (1 of them co-first-authored) and 4 preprints (1 of them first-authored) which have been cited a total of 349 times according to Google Scholar.
