Shuolong Yang is an Assistant Professor of Molecular Engineering at the University of Chicago’s Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering. His research focuses on experimental condensed matter physics, quantum materials engineering, and ultrafast photoemission spectroscopy. He leads the Yang Lab, which develops advanced tools like the MASTER platform to study quantum materials at atomic and femtosecond scales.
- Education: B.S. in Physics (Stanford University), Ph.D. in Applied Physics (Stanford University)
- Previous Position: Kavli Postdoctoral Fellow at Cornell University
Research interests include topological insulators, interfacial superconductivity, and spintronics. His lab integrates molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) with advanced spectroscopic techniques to explore quantum phenomena. Key achievements include DOE Early Career and NSF CAREER awards, as well as recent recognition via the NASA Early Career Faculty award (2024).
Recent work highlights include AI-driven MBE growth of quantum materials and wafer-scale fabrication of topological insulator films. The lab’s instrumentation, such as the MASTER platform, enables multi-dimensional probing of quantum materials.
- Awards: DOE Early Career Award, NSF CAREER Award, NASA Early Career Faculty Award
- Grants: NSF Future Manufacturing Seed Grant, MRSEC Seeding Grant (collaboration with Zhong group)
Labs/Teams: Yang Lab, collaborating with Prof. K. Levin (University of Chicago) on BEC-BCS crossover studies and Prof. Chong Liu on electric-field-driven material synthesis. The lab supports undergraduate researchers (e.g., Bill Zheng, Jess) and postdocs (e.g., Dr. Qiang Gao).
