Brief Introduction
YIN Jiaxin works on utilizing advanced spectroscopy to discover, elucidate, and manipulate electronic structures in solid state materials. As the leading author, Yin has published 5 Nature (totally 11 including Science), 8 Nature Reviews/Physics/Materials (totally 12), 9 PRL/NC (totally 33). Yin has written reviews in Nature, Nature Reviews, Progress in Physics, National Science Review, Physics and perspectives in Nature Physics and Science Bulletin. Yin and his collaborators coherently utilize spectroscopy, transport, scattering, model and first-principles to explore and expand the frontier of solid state physics. Yin has made contributions in:
1. Development of advanced micro-spectroscopy technique and report of a series of kagome magnets and superconductors as well as their electronic tunability embracing both topology and correlation since 2018, which invites a new frontier as topological kagome materials.
2. Report of the robust zero-energy mode in an iron-based superconductor since 2015, which inspires research on the topological iron-based superconductivity and zero mode therein.
Yin's current research directions are:
1. State-of-the-art spectroscopy under extreme conditions, including ultra-low temperature and vectorial magnetic field.
2. Searching for emergent matter (in analogy to black hole and gravity) in solid state materials.
