YW postdoc

Yishu Wang

Adviser: Collin Broholm
Email: wangyishu@jhu.edu
Research Interest: I am interested in emergent phenomena in quantum magnetism, particularly when long-range magnetic ordering is suppressed. Experimentally, I use scattering techniques (neutron and x-ray) to probe magnetic ground states and excitations in the energy-momentum space, complemented by transport measurements, time-resolved studies, and high-pressure tuning.

Junyi Zhang

Adviser: Yi Li
Email: jzhan312@jhu.edu
Research Interest: My current appointment for IQM mainly focuses on topological superconductor and Dirac/Weyl semimetals.  I am generally interested in correlated and topological systems, e.g., quantum Hall effect, and the interplay of the correlation and topology in systems like iron-based superconductor, kagome superconductor, spin liquid, etc.
PhD: Princeton University, 2021


E zoghlin

Eli Zoghlin

Adviser: Tyrel M. McQueen
Email: ezoghli1@jhu.edu
Research Interest: My primary research lies in the field of quantum magnetism with an emphasis on low-dimensional and frustrated systems. Experimentally, I utilize thermodynamic measurements (e.g. heat capacity, magnetic susceptibility) to support neutron or X-ray experiments at national facilities. I am also interested in the  development and usage of high-pressure floating-zone crystal growth to synthesize novel bulk samples.
PhD: University of CA, Santa Barbara
