Research

Our research centres on scanning probe microscopy for the atomic-scale study of low-dimensional quantum materials, with a focus on emergent electronic, magnetic, and structural phenomena that underpin future quantum technologies.

Atomic-Scale Construction of Low-Dimensional Quantum Materials

We develop atomically precise strategies for realising low-dimensional quantum materials, targeting correlated electronic states and magnetism at the atomic scale.

  • Atomically precise fabrication and manipulation of low-dimensional systems
  • Correlated electronic and magnetic behaviour at the atomic scale
  • Local probe studies of interfaces

Bond-Resolved Chemical Dynamics

We investigate atomic-scale chemical dynamics on surfaces, including bond formation, skeletal transformation, and defect evolution.

  • Probing single-molecular reactions on surfaces
  • Bond-selective manipulations

Data-Informed Scanning Probe Microscopy

We develop data-informed scanning probe microscopy approaches that combine experiment and computation at the atomic scale, enabling data-driven exploration of quantum materials.

  • Data-informed operation at the atomic scale
  • Computation-assisted interpretation of local probe measurements
