Quantum materials are excellent venues for exploring exotic behaviors that arise from the interplay of various quantum degrees of freedom, such as spin, orbital, charge, lattice, and topology. These materials offer exciting opportunities for discovering functionalities that could drive next-generation devices and providing deeper insights into the principles of quantum mechanics.
Our research focuses on the design and synthesis of novel quantum materials and the investigation of their intriguing physical properties. We explore emergent symmetry breaking, coupled ferroic orders, quantum magnetism, and complex electronic phases, including superconductivity. Our lab is equipped with state-of-the-art crystal growth techniques, cryostat-based probes for physical properties, x-ray diffraction crystallography, and our research strongly relies on the utilization of advanced facilities such as neutron and synchrotron scattering and high magnetic field. We also collaborate extensively with experts in fields such as microscopy, spectroscopy, optics, and theoretical calculations.
