معرفی
Jun Xiao is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at the University of Wisconsin-Madison since August 2021. He holds additional affiliations with the Physics and Electrical & Computer Engineering departments. His research focuses on quantum materials, light-matter interactions, and terahertz optoelectronics.
- Ph.D. in Applied Science and Technology from UC Berkeley (2018)
- Postdoctoral scholar at Stanford University and SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
- Bachelor's degree in Physics from Nanjing University
Research interests include structure-property relationships in quantum materials, ultrafast optical engineering, and THz device development. His lab explores non-equilibrium phase transitions, quantum collective excitations, and photocarrier dynamics for energy and computing applications.
Recent publications emphasize topological semimetals for THz sensing, stacking order engineering in 2D materials, and spin-mechanical coupling in antiferromagnets. His group integrates ultrafast lasers, quantum transport measurements, and in-situ strain control to study ferroelectricity, magnetism, and electron correlations.
Scientific awards include
- Nature Communications Editor's Suggestion (2018)
- Nature Nanotechnology publication (2015)
Jun Xiao's lab operates 2D material preparation and multimodal characterization facilities, including ultrafast laser systems, CW light sources, and cryogenic strain cells. He teaches courses on quantum materials and device physics, including MS&E 803 and MS&E 456.
