Khoury Lab

The Khoury Lab is a synthetic solid-state chemistry research group at Arizona State University, specializing in the discovery and characterization of new quantum materials with strongly interacting electrons. In particular, we target quasi-low-dimensional intermetallic compounds that could lead to phenomena such as superconductivity, complex magnetism, and electronic instabilities.

Researchers in the Khoury Lab will gain expertise in solid-state synthesis, X-ray crystallography, spectroscopic and microscopic characterization, and low-temperature physical property characterization. Specific techniques include, but are not limited to, metal flux synthesis, chemical vapor transport, single crystal and powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, electronic transport, magnetometry, and specific heat capacity measurements.
