Mengkun Liu, assistant professor in the physics department at Stony Brook University, will give a lecture Monday on recent advances in the infrared and Terahertz spectroscopy.

The lecture, titled “Explore Mesoscopic Physics in Strongly Correlated Electron Materials with Advanced IR and THz Spectroscopy,” will take place from 4:10 p.m. to 5 p.m. in Physics 0003 and will be free to attend. 

Liu will explain how the advances in the infrared and Terahertz spectroscopy can be used to probe electronic/structural phase transitions with unprecedented spatial and temporal resolutions, according to the Iowa State events website. 

More information about Liu and his lecture can be found online on the Iowa State events calendar.
