Bio
I am a dedicated PhD candidate at the University of Sydney specializing in the field of Computational Condensed Matter Theory. My research primarily focuses on designing multiferroic heterostructures and exploring the intricate properties of materials that exhibit multiple ferroic orders. Nowadays, multiferroic materials have attracted much interest in various novel electronic devices due to the co-existence of multiple ferroic orders, such as ferroelectricity, ferromagnetism, and ferroelasticity. There are a variety of fascinating phenomena that are caused by the mutual coupling of various ferroic orders, providing new ideas for electronic devices of the future. I have a strong background in computational condensed matter physics, material science, and solid-state physics, with several publications on the structural, mechanical, electronic, and optical properties of half-metallic clinopyroxenes and the impact of pressure on the physical properties of MAX phase materials.
