Ultrafast Surface Science Laboratory
Research Field
Dr. Cheng-Tien Chiang focuses on the electronic structure at surfaces and interfaces of transition metal dichalcogenides. In these systems, the interaction between localized d electrons as well as the interplay between the d and sp electrons play dominant roles. To observe these effects directly in experiments, he uses laser-based angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy.
The laboratory has been built since November 2019. Details can be found at https://ufss.iams.sinica.edu.tw .
