The central theme of Dr. Lee's research is the development of quantum materials, prepared by “epitaxy”, and quantum devices for unveiling fundamental quantum phenomena as well as for exploring future device applications. Studies include:
- Epitaxy of Quantum Materials
- Hybrid Quantum Materials Systems
- Quantum Transport
- Majoranas towards Quantum Computing
