Research Statement
Our group studies nanoscale dynamics and structure of materials using novel x-ray, light and neutron scattering probes. We are particularly interested in developing novel coherent x-ray scattering techniques to investigate dynamics in variety of condensed matter systems, ranging from electronic and magnetic phases (charge-, spin-, orbital ordered systems, magnetic thin films and nanostructures, metal-insulator transitions and new high-temperature superconductors) to soft matter including fluids, colloids, nanoparticles, polymers and glasses as well as behavior of materials in nanoscale confinement.
