I am Baekjune Kang, a Ph. D. candidate at Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology, advised by Prof. Changhee Sohn. My research focuses on strongly correlated systems and frustrated spin systems, where I study single crystals and thin films of quantum materials—such as perovskite oxides and delafossite-based systems—to explore exotic electronic and magnetic phases.
