Yusuke Iguchi is an experimental condensed matter physicist specializing in superconductivity, magnetism, and quantum materials. He received his B.S. in physics from Tokyo University of Science in 2013 and his Ph.D. in Basic Science from the University of Tokyo in 2018. From 2018 to 2026, he conducted research in the laboratory of Prof. Kathryn Ann Moler at Stanford University, where he served as a Senior Research Scientist and contributed to the development and operation of advanced scanning SQUID microscopy and cryogenic measurement platform.
His research focuses on the local magnetic imaging of emergent quantum phenomena, including unconventional superconductivity, multicomponent superconductivity, magnetic quantum criticality, and topological magnetic states. His work has led to several notable discoveries, including the observation of unquantized vortices in multiband superconductors, local magnetic signatures of candidate chiral superconductors, anomalous superfluid density associated with quantum fluctuations, and nonreciprocal spin wave propagation in chiral magnets.
Dr. Iguchi has authored more than 20 peer-reviewed publications, including papers in Science, Physical Review Letters, and other leading journals in condensed matter physics. His research has been recognized through several awards, including the UJA Outstanding Paper Award (2024), the JSPS Overseas Research Fellowship (2018), the JSPS DC2 Fellowship (2016), and the Outstanding Graduate Student Award from the University of Tokyo (2015). In addition, his work has been selected multiple times as Editors' Suggestions and Editors' Picks in leading physics journals, including Physical Review Letters, Physical Review B, Physical Review Materials, Applied Physics Letters, and the Journal of the Physical Society of Japan.
Beyond his research, he actively supports the Japanese scientific community in the United States. He co-founded the Association for Japanese Researchers at Stanford University (JASS) and currently serves as a Co-Director of UJAW, a U.S.-based nonprofit organization that supports Japanese researchers and scholars throughout the United States.
I delivered my invited talk about Magnetic Imaging of Chiral and Magnetic Superconductors in the Symposium "Unconventional and Nonreciprocal Superconductivity" at the 70th Annual Conference on Magnetism and Magnetic Materials (MMM2025) at Palm Beach, Florida.
I gave a seminar on "Quantum Magnetism in Superconductors at the Mesoscopic Scale: Multicomponent Systems" at CMP Seminar hosted by Prof. Ilya Sochnikov at University of Connecticut.
I have reviewed the study of superconductors using scanning magnetic probe microscopy, published in Japanese in Solid State Physics.
I delivered my invited talk about Un-quantized Vortex and Edge Fields in Multicomponent Superconductors in the workshop "Beyond Standard Superconducting and Superfluid States: Electron Quadrupling Condensates and Composite Orders" at Nordita, Stockholm, Sweden.
I delivered my invited talk about Un-quantized Vortex and Edge Fields in Multicomponent Superconductors in the session "Multicomponent Superconductors" at Gordon Research Conference Superconductivity 2025 at Les Diablerets, Switzerland.
I delivered my invited talk about Un-quantized Vortex and Edge Fields in Multicomponent Superconductors in the session of "Multicomponent Superconductivity and Related Phenomena", and served as a session modelator in the same session at ICSM 2025.
I delivered my talk about the Manual for Launching a Community of International Researchers and served as the chair for the session of Leaders' Talk at UJA Global Gathering 2025 at Cincinnati Children's Hospital.
I delivered my invited talk about magnetic imaging chiral and magnetic superconductors in the symposium EL07-Superconducting Materials at the Materials Research Society Spring Meeting 2025 in Seattle. I also served as the chair for the same session.
I talked about our local measurements of penetration depth enhancement at the antiferromagnetic quantum critical point(AF-QCP) in APS March Meeting 2025.
