Research Interests:

It is widely recognized that whoever controls materials controls technology.听

Our research has focused on the discovery, synthesis, and study of novel quantum materials.听It encompasses a methodical search for new quantum听materials听and a systematic effort to elucidate and control novel quantum states in听these materials. 听We are particularly interested in听strongly correlated materials with strong spin-orbit interactions, such as听4d- and听5d-transition metal oxides.听Our studies of听these oxides听over the last three decades have helped initiate and shape novel lines of research on听4d-别濒别肠迟谤辞苍-产补蝉别诲听谤耻迟丑别苍补迟别蝉听补苍诲听5d-electron-based听iridates. These materials now underpin one of the most important and exciting research areas in contemporary condensed matter physics. 听Our laboratory is equipped with听advanced techniques for materials听synthesis听and听a large suite of experiemental听tools for听studies of structural and听physical properties, often at extreme conditions, i.e., ultralow temperatures, high magnetic fields and high pressures. We have also established broad collaborations with leading scientists in the US and around the world.听
