Electronic Instabilities and Magnetic Correlations in Kagome Metals
Kagome metals, characterized by a lattice of corner-sharing triangles, exhibit unique electronic properties that can lead to phenomena such as charge density waves, superconductivity, and exotic magnetic orders. My research focuses on three primary objectives using advanced magnetic resonance techniques: exploring the mechanisms behind charge density wave formation, studying how physical strain affects the electronic properties of these systems, and examining the magnetic properties of rare-earth-based kagome metals.
