Welcome to the Ye Group

We are an experimental condensed matter group affiliated with UBC Physics and Astronomy Department and Stewart Blusson Quantum Matter Institute, focused on probing and controlling the emergent degrees of freedom in low-dimensional quantum materials. Atomically thin materials such as transition metal dichalcogenide and graphene are currently our primary interest. We apply techniques including continuous and ultrafast optical spectroscopy, scanning nearfield optical microscopy, and nanofabrication of photonic devices to study fundamental science down to the atomic level. Our goal is to discover and understand unprecedented physical phenomena related to the future of quantum technology. Read More…
