Fisher Research Group

		Welcome to the Fisher group homepage Our research focuses on the design, growth and characterization of materials with unconventional magnetic and electronic ground states and phase transitions. Through this research we aim to better understand, and ultimately control, emergent behavior in quantum materials. Our experiments emphasize probes of the thermodynamic and transport properties of solids, often incorporating strain-induced effects, coupled with an extensive crystal growth program. The Geballe Laboratory for Advanced Materials at Stanford University provides the perfect environment in which to implement this program. Follow the links for information about specific projects, and please feel free to contact us for further information. Work in our group is currently supported by the Department of Energy, Office of Basic Energy Sciences, under contract DE-AC02-76SF00515; the Air Force Office of Scientific Research under award number FA9550-20-1-0252; and the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation Emergent Phenomena in Quantum Systems Initiative through Grant GBMF9068.
