Synthesis, characterization and terahertz study of metal oxides by He, Mi

“…The interplays among various orderings of the spin, charge and orbital degrees of freedom in a broad spectrum of crystalline structures produce a number forms of symmetry-breaking patterns of spatial inversion, time-reversal and gauge symmetries, leading to exciting emergent phenomena in strongly-correlated electron systems and promising a variety of potential applications. The main objective of this dissertation is synthesis, characterization and terahertz study of metal oxides, which particularly refers to the transition metal oxide of ZnO and multiferroic BiFeO3 materials. …”
