About the author
Dr. Chi Sin Tang received his Bachelor`s degree in Physics from Nanyang Technological University (Singapore) and Ph.D. under the Integrative Sciences and Engineering Programme (ISEP) at the National University of Singapore (NUS). Previously, he was a scientist in the Nano Electronic and Thermal Transport (NETT) group at the Institute of Materials Research and Engineering (IMRE), A*STAR Singapore. He is currently a Research Fellow at the Singapore Synchrotron Light Source, National University of Singapore (NUS) under the NUS Emerging Scientist Fellowship. His research interests focus on electronic and magnetic properties of strongly-correlated systems, heterostructures and 2D Materials where unique quantum properties and quasi-particle dynamics can be uncovered.
Prof. Xinmao Yin is currently a professor at the Physics Department of Shanghai University, China. He received his bachelor's degree in Physics from Zhejiang University and his PhD degree in Physics from the National University of Singapore under the supervision of Prof. Andrew Wee. Thereafter, he continued his research at the National University of Singapore with specific interests on the electronic and spin structures of multiple classes of quantum materials based on a range of optical spectroscopic techniques in different energy regimes. His research also focuses on the governing mechanisms of superconductivity, ferromagnetism, phase transition and other exotic quasi-particle quantum excitations.
Andrew T. S. Wee is a class of '62 Professor of Physics at the National University of Singapore. His research interests are in surface and nanoscale science, scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) and synchrotron radiation studies of the molecule-substrate interface, graphene and related 2D materials. He was a Commonwealth Fellow as well as a Rhodes Scholar at the University of Oxford, where he received his DPhil (1990). He holds a Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in Physics (1994) as well as a master's degree from the University of Cambridge. He is an Associate Editor of the journal ACS Nano and serves or has served on several other journal editorial boards.
