研究介绍 

Research Interest



Accurate synthesis and engineering of quantum materials have become the frontiers of physical sciences and might give rise to new materials and structures with exotic properties and practical applications in next-generation technologies. For example, the Tc of correlated superconductors can be dramatically tuned by subtly changing lattice parameters; band properties of two-dimensional materials can undergo topological phase transition through the sub-Å displacement of atomic bonding. Our group has developed state-of-the-art techniques for this purpose by combining high-resolution scanning probe microscopy with high-precision molecular beam epitaxy. However, new methodologies for atomic-level characterizations of structure, coupling, and interaction are still demanded in order to get a comprehensive understanding of material engineering at the picoscale. Prof. Zhao has long been engaged in the research of single-molecule science, high-resolution scanning probe microscopy, low-dimensional quantum materials, and topological materials and has made many important original developments in these areas. More than 60 research papers have been published in SCI journals such as Science, Nature Materials, and Nat. Commun. The research results won the Top-Ten Scientific and Technological Progress in China in 2005 and the Top-Ten Scientific and Technological Progress in Universities in 2009.

We sincerely welcome researchers with strong backgrounds in physics, materials, or chemistry to join us as research assistants/associates or post-doc in these fantastic scientific research projects. Please contact Prof. Zhao directly via email.
