Quantum materials are a collaborative problem
CNMP brings together theorists, computational materials scientists, and experimental physicists to connect microscopic models with measurable phenomena. Many of our current projects grow through the Center for Extreme Quantum Matter and Functionality.
Visit CeQMF Group 2Our Working Model
CNMP is both a laboratory and a research network: questions are developed collectively across institutions, methods, and the boundary between theory and experiment.
Principal Investigator
Theoretical direction and computational research
CNMP’s research begins with physical questions about how electronic structure, strong interactions, symmetry, and dimensionality produce new material behavior.
Principal Investigator
Jaejun Yu
Professor of Physics · Seoul National University
Electronic structure, magnetism, and topological properties of transition-metal oxides and low-dimensional materials, studied through quantum-mechanical models and computational methods.
Main Collaborators
