Welcome to the homepage of the Zhang group in the State Key Laboratory of Crystal Materials at SDU. Our research focus is the bulk single crystal growth and exploration of electronic phase behaviors and magnetism in correlated electron materials and topological materials. Specific areas under investigation include nickelate superconductors, quantum spin liquids, cuprate analogue, etc. The primary experimental tools used in our studies are high gas pressure flux growth and Laser floating zone techniques in addition to bulk electronic properties characterization.
