Magnetismm

We are interested in understanding fundamental magnetic interaction and their response to various external stimuli, including electrostatic gating, mechanical strain, and inter-layer coupling.

Optical behaviors

Our research focuses on exciton and valley physics in LD materials, as well as their coupling to various degrees of freedom, such as magnetism and twisting.

Catalytic properties

We focus on CO2 reduction reaction. We engage in developing new force field for large-scale simulation of catalytic processes.
