Eunja Kim, PhD : Research Interests


Our main interests are in condensed matter physics. By trying to understand physics behind the particular behaviors in various silicon systems we've been hooked up into the tiny world of atoms. We use quantum mechanics as a tool to communicate with atoms, thermodynamics to interpret their behavior, and Newtonian mechanics to anticipate their next moves. It all comes along together to make things work out nicely in their tiny world.

Our interests in high pressure physics (HiPSEC) include structural stability and phase transition under pressure. We try to understand how atoms release their stress from the environment they belong and how they make a peace together.

Followings are the research projects we have worked on.
