 Discovering new emergent phenomena in correlated electronic systems

Research

A simple metal can be described as a gas of non-interacting electrons. However, when electron correlations become strong, many exciting and potentially useful phenomena occur. 

​

In our laboratory, we tune through the electronic phase diagram of such systems using control parameters such as chemical doping, pressure, electric and magnetic fields.

Our goal is to discover new physics in correlated systems and to understand them. Such discoveries can lead us to new or improved functionalities such as high-temperature superconductivity, controllable ferroelectricity and ferromagnetism, and tunable topological orders.

We have the capabilities of making high-quality samples and devices as well as performing unique measurements.
