I am a Scientist at the SIX beamline at NSLS-II where I perform ultra-high resolution Resonant Inelastic X-Ray Scattering. My research interests involve quantum materials and span different physical phenomena such as ultrafast phenomena, unconventional charge density waves, topological spin excitations, superconductivity, 2D van der Waals systems, spin liquids, and quantum emitters. I have several active collaborations with external universities and research institutes (CUNY, Stanford, MIT, Yale, Harvard, and PSI) on different projects.

Expertise

I use advanced resonant techniques (hard and soft x-rays) to investigate electronic properties of quantum materials. This concerns the investigation of electronic orders and excitations in several materials. I develeloped a laser-RIXS setup commissioned at the SIX beamline to study quantum materials and their ultrafast transitions. I have been working with high temperature superconductors, charge and spin density waves, and ultrathin materials.
