The remarkable properties of quantum materials stem from the exotic quasiparticles they can harbor. However, comprehensive understanding of these quasiparticles remains a daunting challenge due to the intrinsically strong interplay of charge, spin, orbital, and lattice degrees of freedom.

The fragile balance between coexisting and competing ground states yields the rich and complex phase diagrams of quantum materials. This balance also enables an extreme sensitivity to external perturbations, providing broad opportunities to realize and understand the emergent order. Our main scientific goal is to discover and control quantum materials’ properties and elucidate the interplay of relevant degrees of freedom across a broad range of energy and time scales by utilizing multi-dimensional approaches.
