Early Career Scientist Prize

A few weeks ago, I received an email with an exciting news–I have become selected as the winner of the Early Career Scientist Prize in the field of magnetism from International Union of Pure and Applied Science! I thank everyone who congratulated me already. I am also grateful for the research community where I belong,…

Before moving to Korea

Probably many people already know that I am moving to Seoul, Korea in this summer, as I take an assistant professor position at Department of Physics, Korea University. How do I feel nowadays? Maybe it’s exciting, but to be honest, it’s also quite overwhelming with so many things to end my stay in Germany and…

Our new finding on chiral crystals

Our recent research article titled “Orbital Topology of Chiral Crystals” is now published in Advanced Materials 2418040 (2025). We show that the band topology of a structurally chiral semimetal CoSi is driven by the orbital angular momentum. Clear signature of the orbital angular momentum of the multifold chiral fermion in CoSi was experimentally confirmed by…

WE-Heraeus-Seminar on “X-tronics with Emerging Magnetic Materials”

During 6-9 January 2025, I had great time in Physikzentrum Bad Honnef during the WE-Heraeus seminar on “X-tronics with Emerging Magnetic Materials” (webpage: https://www.we-heraeus-stiftung.de/veranstaltungen/x-tronics-with-emerging-magnetic-materials-1/). This is the seminar that I organized with my colleague Aisha Aqeel (Uni Augsburg) for long time. We submitted the seminar proposal to the WE-Heraeus foundation in February 2024. A few…

Japan In November – Tokyo

In between businesses, I spent a weekend in Tokyo. The main purpose was, in fact, to see my friend Taekoo, who is currently a postdoc at RIKEN-CEMS. Saturday and Sunday have been quite relaxing indeed. I woke up rather late (I tried to sleep more despite the hell jetlag!) and met Taekoo. We then had…

Japan in November – Kyoto

In my work, I often collaborated with Japanese colleagues, and thus I have always wanted to visit Japan to get to know them better and have some super honest/plain scientific discussions in depth. In the last November, I finally got a chance to visit Japan, as I got invited to Spintronics and Orbitronics Workshop, organized…

Weekend hikings

I started to enjoy hiking more than before. I just like to walk for several hours, away from the city and in peace. After that I find myself becoming calm, as it should be (I often get too ‘excited’ during the week when I work). It can be hot sometimes, but I just need to…

Bologna, International Conference on Magnetism

Since the last week, I spent a week of great time in Bologna. Although the main purpose of the trip was to join the International Conference on Magnetism (ICM), I also took a chance to discover the area — culture, history, and food. Especially the food, there were many nice things to try. Flavorful coffee,…
