معرفی
Luqiao Liu is an Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) at MIT. He is affiliated with the Research Laboratory of Electronics (RLE) and leads the Spintronic Material and Device Group. His research focuses on spin electronics (spintronics), nanoscale materials, and spin-based devices for low-power computing, non-volatile memory, and microwave applications. His work explores spin-orbit interactions in topological insulators, antiferromagnets, and hybrid systems.
Liu holds a BS in Physics from Peking University and a PhD in Applied Physics from Cornell University. Before joining MIT in 2015, he worked at IBM’s T.J. Watson Research Center. Notable awards include the Aravind V. Subramanium T.L. Memorial Award and IBM’s Patent Application Achievement Award.
His research group investigates spin-orbitronics, aiming to leverage pure spin currents for energy-efficient devices. Recent work includes magnon-magnon coupling in magnetic garnet bilayers, superparamagnetic tunnel junctions for true randomness, and coherent spin dynamics in antiferromagnetic systems. Collaborations span quantum engineering, hybrid magnonic systems, and neuromorphic computing.
