Fuyang Tay
Graduate Student
Ph.D. Program in Applied Physics
Fuyang Tay is a fifth-year PhD candidate in the group of Prof. Junichiro Kono. He obtained his B.S. degree in Physics from Nanyang Technological University (NTU) in Singapore in 2018. Afterwards, he worked as a project officer at NTU with Prof. Baile Zhang for a year. During this time, he conducted research on the dynamics of free-electron radiation and a fluid-flow invisibility cloak.
His current research interests include cavity quantum electrodynamics in solid-state systems and terahertz magnetospectroscopy of quantum materials. Specifically, he focuses on utilizing the cavity vacuum electromagnetic field to induce novel material properties in the equilibrium state. Below are some examples of previous projects:
- Ultrastrong and superstrong coupling in a three-dimensional photonic-crystal cavity [1]
- Colossal magnetoresistance and colossal magnetocapacitance at terahertz frequencies in La1-xSrxMnO3 [2]
- Chiral phonons in Pb1-xSnxTe [3,4]
- Terahertz response of carbon nanotube films [5]
- Guided modes in flexible 2D terahertz photonic crystals [6]
