Research Interests: Design and synthesis of bulk crystalline magnetoelectric, multiferroic, and topological materials, including unconventional superconductors and new candidate spin liquids. My most recent work has focused on tuning spin triplet and field reinforced unconventional superconductivity in single crystals via controlling synthetic conditions. This work has required, and will continue to require, testing the magnetoresistance, PDO/TDO frequency response, and solid state NMR spectroscopic properties of single crystals at the National MagLab in Tallahassee, FL.

Research Interests: We are interested, in general, in the study of complex and strongly correlated materials, in characterizing and understanding the origin and nature of their ground states, as well as the ways of controlling and optimizing their properties by tuning physical parameters such as temperature, magnetic field, and chemical doping. Some of the phenomena we commonly encounter in our materials are superconductivity, charge density wave order, topological states, ferroic orders including multiferroicity, and thermoelectricity. The compounds we are currently focused on are transition metal dichalcogenides and tetrachalcogenides. Our research program is accompanied with a material synthesis effort, mainly in the form of single crystals, which also gives the opportunity to chemically manipulate the compounds to optimize their properties. We are experienced users of the MagLab facilities, where we generally do transport measurements to characterize the Fermi surface of materials through Shubnikov de Haas effect, plus other high-field magnetotransport properties.

Research Interests: I'm particularly interested in novel electron correlation and topology phenomena in van der Waals coupled 2D materials. Some examples include isospin-symmetry-broken states in rhombohedral multilayer graphene and novel orbital multiferroicity, which were partially done at the DC facility of NHMFL. More recently, we discovered integer and fractional quantum anomalous Hall effects in rhombohedral graphene.

Research Interests: I study emergent quantum phenomena in 2D van der Waals materials and heterostructures. I am particularly interested in using interfacial and proximity effects to probe, control and engineer quantum phases in 2D materials, such as fractional quantum Hall effect, superfluidity, superconductivity, and topological ferromagnetism. For example, my work on graphene double-layer structure, performed mostly at the national high magnetic field lab, has led to the experimental realization of the fractional quantum Hall effect with 2-component correlation, as well as excitonic condensate.

Research Interests: The goal of my research group is to explore novel quantum phenomena in ultrathin film, layered materials. We do this by focusing on controlling the growth, thin film stacking, and device fabrication processes, allowing for consistent, ultrahigh quality 2D heterostructure devices. Research involves understanding of single crystal synthesis, nanofabrication processes, and magnetotransport studies at temperatures down to 20 mK.
