Biography
Research subject
Magnetism in quantum materials
Research interests
My main research topic is the study of magnetic systems which have exotic behavior induced by geometric frustration – a competition between the magnetic interactions. Especially, I look for states of matter called spin liquid in which any magnetic order is “melted” by quantum fluctuations. I use several search techniques including nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), muon spin rotation (µSR), thermodynamic measurements (like specific heat and magnetic susceptibility) and ultrasonic velocity.
