Advanced Materials
Designing programmable matter at the edge of atomic and computational science.
Next-gen substrates for computation, energy, and sensing.
Yazhvin’s materials research unites quantum chemistry, computational modeling, and nanoscale fabrication to create new materials with tailored mechanical, optical, and quantum properties. We simulate and prototype materials from 2D lattices to metamaterials with exotic behavior.
Core Research Areas
2D Materials & Graphene
Engineering sheets of carbon, silicon, and transition metal dichalcogenides with superconducting and photonic properties.
Metamaterials
Designing artificial materials with negative refractive index, topological protection, and programmable elasticity.
Neuromorphic Substrates
Creating analog substrates for brain-inspired computing using memristors, organic semiconductors, and ionics.
Quantum Coherent Materials
Exploring coherence in layered and defect-free crystals for scalable quantum information processing.
High-Entropy Alloys
Simulating phase space of multi-elemental alloys for ultra-strength, corrosion resistance, and heat tolerance.
Materials for AI Chips
Custom dielectrics, thermal conductors, and optical interconnects for next-gen processors and accelerators.
From atoms to architectures — help us build the future.
