Modern civilization builds on the material science industry. The physical properties of the material rely on the interplay between spin, charge, and orbital. Then understanding the correlated effects among them can progress the exploitation of the novel quantum material. My research theme is to study the correlated effect among the spin, orbital, and charge through synchrotron spectroscopy combing with quantum many-body calculations. We will look insight into the deep mechanism governing the complex interactions between each quantum degree of freedom to solve the complex quantum problem. Furthermore, we will utilize the knowledge learned from the correlated effect to exploit the novel quantum material.
Our laboratory provides a comprehensive and diverse research environment, including:
1. Sample fabrication: Preparation of various single-crystal oxide thin films through hands-on experience with the laboratory’s pulse laser deposition system.
2. X-ray diffraction measurements: Analysis of atomic-level lattice structures of prepared samples using the laboratory’s X-ray diffractometer.
3. Synchrotron radiation spectroscopy: Conducting spectroscopic measurements using synchrotron radiation sources at the National Synchrotron Research center to cultivate experience in operating heavy experimental instruments.
4. Theoretical analysis: Utilizing powerful computers such as the laboratory’s server-grade system and employing principles based on quantum many-body theory to explore the quantum information implicit in spectra obtained from synchrotron measurements. This knowledge is used to develop novel functional quantum materials.
