SYMPOSIUM 7 – Oxide Quantum Materials

The interplay between charge, spin, orbital, and lattice in strongly correlated oxide materials leads to a plethora of implications in both scientific research and technological applications. Emergent phenomena in oxide quantum materials, exhibited across a diverse array of material forms, offer novel functional properties of ceramics that extend beyond conventional electronic applications. This symposium covers recent advances in the synthesis and characterization of oxide quantum materials, encompassing thin film heterostructures, bulk crystals, membranes, and nanomaterials. Topics of interest include epitaxial growth of complex oxides, exploration of new materials, investigation of quantum/electronic/magnetic properties, advanced characterization techniques, theory and computation, and device applications.

This symposium aims to bring together scientific experts and young scientists with an interest in oxides, fostering interactions and advancing knowledge of emergent functional properties and related hardware concepts for unconventional computing.
