Biography

Yuri Suzuki is the Stanley G. Wojcicki Professor in the Department of Applied Physics at Stanford University, with a courtesy appointment in Materials Science Engineering. His research group focuses on novel ground states and functional properties of condensed matter systems, synthesized through atomic precision thin film deposition techniques. His recent work emphasizes highly correlated electronic systems, investigating emergent interfacial phenomena and electronic magnetic phenomena, spin current generation, and control in complex oxide-based ferromagnets. His expertise includes multifunctional behavior in complex oxide thin films and heterostructures, as well as low-dimensional electron gas systems. Suzuki has held various leadership positions including Director of nano@stanford and Stanford Nano Shared Facilities. He has received numerous honors such as Fellow of the Materials Research Society and the American Association for the Advancement of Science and has been awarded the Vannevar Bush Faculty Fellowship from the Department of Defense.
