We study materials with strong quantum correlations, with emphasis on unconventional superconductors. We employ a broad range of experimental techniques, including nuclear magnetic resonance, neutron and X-ray scattering and low-frequency optical spectroscopy.
The group is primarily funded by the Croatian Science Foundation through grant no. UIP-2020-02-9494.
