Research

Quanxi’s research interests have focused on the growth of metal-oxide films, the study of processing-structure-property relationship of electronic materials, the monolithic integration of metal-oxide materials with complimentary functionalities for novel devices, the fabrication of electronic devices, and the structural/electrical characterization of electronic materials. His recent work covers the investigation of energy storage/conversion materials and multifunctional nanocomposites including ferroelectric, ferromagnetic, multiferroic, and high-temperature superconducting materials
