Profile
Kenichiro Hashimoto
June 1983 Born in Kyoto, Japan
My research interests are focused on the experimental elucidation of novel electronic states in strongly correlated electron systems, such as unconventional superconductivity and quantum spin liquids arising from the complex interplay among spins, charges, orbitals, lattices, and topology.
Keywords: Superconductivity, Quantum spin liquid, Quantum glass, Quantum phase transition, Strongly correlated electron system, etc...
