Liu Group

Liu group is focused on the creation, manipulation, visualization, and understanding of novel quantum states of matter such as unconventional superconductivity. Experimentally, Liu group implements scanning tunneling microscopy, scanned Josephson tunneling microscopy, and single atom/molecule manipulation at cryogenic temperatures. Materials of interest include (but are not limited to)

  • High-temperature superconductors
  • Candidate topological superconductors
  • Charge, pair, and spin density wave materials
  • Magnetic topological insulators
  • 2D van der Waals heterostructures
  • Artificial quantum structures from single atom/molecule manipulations
  • Fully synthetic low-dimensional materials and their derivatives
