Presenting: Our Research

Our current research involves the study of complex material systems. Most notable among these are the strongly correlated electron systems, such as the high-temperature superconductors and the Mott insulators. We study these systems by probing their interactions with electromagnetic radiation, ranging from x-rays, to the ultraviolet, and into the microwave regime. Our research also involves exploration of materials inspired by energy applications, such as novel diamondoids for lighting, field emission, and photo-enhanced thermionic emission (PETE).
