Lab Introduction
Our research is primarily situated at the intersection of experimental condensed matter physics and nanotechnology, with a core focus on understanding electronic transport in low-dimensional semiconductor systems.
Our work can be categorized into several key pillars:
【Mesoscopic and Low-Dimensional Physics】
Professor Liang explores the physical properties of systems where the dimensions are reduced to the nanoscale (0D, 1D, and 2D). A significant portion of his research focuses on the Quantum Hall Effect (QHE) and the direct insulator-to-quantum Hall transitions. By studying these transitions in materials like graphene and GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures, his team investigates universal scaling behaviors and the fundamental nature of quantum phase transitions.
【Enhanced Superconductivity】
Our research also delves into the macroscopic quantum phenomenon of superconductivity. We utilizes Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) to grow high-perfection aluminum thin films, studying how grain architecture and dimensionality affect the superconducting critical temperature.
