Research Contents

Physical properties of various emerging thin film materials will be investigated systematically under ultra-low temperature and high magnetic field conditions, especially the quantum transport of electrons or spins in these materials. We will also aim to effectively control the novel quantum phenomena revealed in these materials by optical, electrical, or magnetic means.
