Designing Quantum Nanomaterials

Design, Image, and Functionalize Quantum Nanomaterials

Our research lies at the intersection of condensed matter physics, nanotechnology, and materials science. We are driven by the goal of designing, functionalizing, and manipulating novel quantum nanomaterials through artificial heterostructure engineering based on 2D materials and thin film growth. We are keen on engineering nontrivial topology and Berry curvature, investigating unconventional ferroelectricity and magnetism, and designing strongly-correlated electronic systems that manifest exotic superconductivity. 

Our experimental toolkits include van der Waals heterostructure assembly, thin film growth, device nanofabrication, low-temperature electrical measurement, and scanning probe microscopy.
