Research Interest
1.With low-temperature and high magnetic field scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), our group studies the electronic states of novel materials, including charge density wave materials, superconductors and topological materials. 2.By harnessing the power of spin-resolved and time-resolved STM, our group probes spin dynamics of few-atom nanomagnets. 3.Using STM atom manipulation technique, we engineer tens or hundreds of atoms and investigate the emergent quantum collective characteristics. 4.Developing new scanning tunneling spectroscopy methods with which we can probe the ultrafast dynamics of solids at atomic scale.
