Scholar-generated biography
Hao Zheng is a researcher in condensed matter physics with a focus on topological matters. His work explores the discovery and characterization of Weyl fermion semimetals, topological Fermi arcs, and nodal-line fermions. He has contributed to the experimental identification of topological Weyl fermion states in materials such as niobium arsenide, tantalum phosphide, and molybdenum-tungsten telluride. His research also investigates the Adler–Bell–Jackiw chiral anomaly, drumhead surface states, and the interconnectivity of Fermi surfaces in Weyl semimetals. Zheng's studies highlight the role of spin-orbit coupling and magnetic properties in shaping topological phases of matter.
