Our research can often be separated into three stages:
- Design and synthesis of high-quality novel materials, preferably in single-crystal form.
- Investigation of the material's properties. This includes physical properties measurements followed by data modelling and calculations
in order to describe and explain the interactions and correlations that govern the measured properties.
- Search for novel ground states and applied properties by tuning various thermodynamic control parameters (composition, pressure, etc).
The stages described above can involve many different experimental procedures and theoretical techniques depending on the
characteristics of the compound we are working on.
