个人简介

Zhu's research interests focus on understanding nano-to-atomic scale phenomena of strongly correlated quantum materials and advanced electron microscopy. His main research goals are probing charge, orbital, spin and lattice correlations and their degrees of freedom, structure-property relationships, as well as interfaces and defects at ultrahigh spatial, temporal, and energy resolution. To achieve the goals and stay at the forefront of the field, he and his team develop and implement electron-microscopy instrumentation and methodology. Zhu's experience on instrumentation development includes laser-free ultrafast electron microscopy, various stages for advancing sample environment capabilities, simultaneous imaging of surface and bulk at atomic resolution and MeV Ultrafast electron diffraction (UED) and microscopy (UEM) with accelerator technologies. His expertise on quantitative microscopy includes valence electron mapping using electron diffraction, aberration corrected atomic imaging, energy-loss spectroscopy, electron holography, Lorentz microscopy, ultrafast electron microscopy and cryogenic in-situ microscopy in superconductors, multiferroics, topological 2D magnets, and quantum and energy materials.
