This laboratory is named after the 17 T superconducting DC magnet we have installed, which is one of the largest table-top magnet in existence. We can conduct two-color pump probe spectroscopy and THz time-domain spectroscopy in B-field down at temperature ranging from 2.6 to 400K. We have utilized this system to study the optical and electronic properties in quantum materials including the newly-discovered Dirac and Weyl semimetals and other strongly correlated materials [1-3]. Besides fundamental research, we also carry out technical development in this lab, which includes development of next generation high-harmonic light source, and laser surgery technology, both of which are supported by OIST’s proof of concept program that provide funding to bridge the gap between lab discoveries and societal impact.
