RESEARCH INTERESTS

Dr. Wen-Xin Tang's main research interests include surface physics focus on diffusion, dynamics growth on the surface, structure and magnetism ultrathin films’properties by molecular beam epitaxy, the high energy spin-waves (magnons) excitations in ferromagnetic low dimensional systems, spin-dependent electron inelastic scattering process by using spin polarized energy loss spectroscopy (SPEELS) and low energy electron microscopy and diffraction (LEEM & LEED).
