Dr. Timur Kim

Diamond Light Source, UK
Timur Kim is a Diamond Research Fellow and Senior Beamline Scientist at I05 beamline at Diamond Light Source, UK. He graduated Physics Department of Novosibirsk State University, Russia. Received his PhD from the Dresden University of Technology in 2004. His doctoral work focused on Angle-Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy (ARPES) studies of the inter-plane interaction role in the electronic structure of high Tc cuprates. Timur worked as a post-doc at synchrotrons at the University of Aarhus, Denmark, and Paul Scherrer Institute, Switzerland. Prior to joining Diamond, he was involved in the installation and commissioning of the “1-cubed ARPES” end station at the BESSY II synchrotron in Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin, Germany.

Since 2011, Timur has been part of the team designing, constructing, and operating a new ARPES beamline at the UK national synchrotron, Diamond Light Source. Working at this world-leading facility gave him the opportunity to establish collaborations with best photoemission groups worldwide and conduct his own research studying the electronic structure of various quantum materials, including low-dimensional systems like transition metal dichalcogenides, strongly correlated electronic materials, and novel topological compounds. His current focus is into various unconventional superconductors, including magnetic and non-centrosymmetric materials.
