Scholar-generated biography
Xiaomeng Liu is a researcher in condensed matter physics with a focus on electrical transport, scanning tunneling microscopy, and 2D materials. Their work explores the electronic properties of graphene and related systems, including the Dirac fluid, Wiedemann-Franz law breakdown, and unconventional superconductivity. Liu investigates many-body correlations, spin-polarized states, and quantum Hall effects in twisted bilayer graphene and other heterostructures. They also study exciton condensates, topological defects, and correlated insulating behavior. Research includes spectroscopic techniques to visualize broken symmetries and topological electronic boundaries. Their contributions span both experimental and theoretical approaches to understanding strongly correlated electron systems and quantum phase transitions in low-dimensional materials.
