Morosan Group
Morosan Group
1/5
Our group is focused on design and synthesis of quantum materials with emergent properties: unconventional topological fermions (Kramers-Weyl, multi-degenerate) and spin textures (skyrmions), superconductivity and density waves, Kondo materials, complex structures with 2D transition metal dichalcogenides, and more. We employ solid state synthesis, vapor transport and flux crystal growth in hopes of discovering new compounds showing exceptional physics and potential for applications.

Rice Undergraduate and Graduate Students:
Our group is constantly looking for enthusiastic students interested in condensed matter experiment. The general research focus is on strongly correlated electron systems, with particular emphasis on the discovery of novel materials. You will acquire valuable skills in crystal growth, thermodynamic and transport characterization, with opportunities for specialized training in neutron diffraction, muSR, high magnetic field measurements etc at national and international laboratories.
To apply: contact Prof. Morosan here.
