Xiaomeng Liu received NSF CAREER Award

We are very excited to receive the CAREER (Faculty Early Career Development Program) award from the NSF.

With this five year grant, Liu group will develop a novel microscopic approach to identity and manipulate anyons, exotic emerging particles of topological materials that could pave a new path to quantum computing.

Integrated to the science objective, we will work with Ithaca physics bus to disseminate quantum physics through hand-on demonstrations, make quantum material research more accessible with online knowledge sharing, and modernize advanced lab course at Cornell.
