Spin Phenomena Interdisciplinary Center (SPICE)

Unconventional superconductors are materials that exhibit superconductivity beyond the framework of BCS or Migdal–Eliashberg theories, often characterized by novel broken symmetries in addition to the usual U(1) gauge symmetry breaking. A parallel development has recently emerged in magnetism with the discovery of altermagnets—materials with collinear but compensated magnetic order that defy classification as either conventional ferromagnets or antiferromagnets. Together, these phenomena highlight some of the most exciting frontiers in quantum materials research, offering both fundamental challenges and promising pathways toward future quantum technologies. This workshop will bring together leading experimentalists and theorists to discuss the latest developments in unconventional superconductors and magnets across a broad range of materials platforms.

Spin Phenomena Interdisciplinary Center (SPICE)

This conference will bring together experimentalists and theorists to explore how strain can be used to probe and control electronic and structural properties in quantum materials. Discussions will focus on the tuning of competing charge and spin orders, mechanically responsive electronic states, and emergent collective dynamics. Particular attention will be given to novel experimental approaches that enable high-precision strain control and uncover hidden aspects of quantum correlations.
