Bio/Research
Our research focuses on studying how strong quantum correlations between electrons can give rise to phenomena, such as high-temperature superconductivity, colossal magnetoresistance, or electron fractionalization. We primarily use spectroscopic techniques such as angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES), and other synchrotron-based x-ray probes including x-ray absorption spectroscopy and resonant x-ray scattering to investigate these materials. A major research thrust is the synthesis and investigation of artificially engineered heterostructures synthesized by reactive oxide molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) with strong electron correlations which allow new emergent states to be created at the interface. Our group also focuses on the development of novel instrumentation and spectroscopies for the investigation of quantum materials.
