Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Condensed matter physics
  • Electron

Condensed matter physics, Topological insulator, Fermion, Quantum mechanics and Semimetal are his primary areas of study. His study looks at the relationship between Condensed matter physics and fields such as Quantum, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. Su-Yang Xu has included themes like Surface states, Macroscopic quantum phenomena, Topological order, Band gap and Electronic band structure in his Topological insulator study.

His work deals with themes such as Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, Weyl semimetal and Spinor, which intersect with Fermion.

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Su-Yang Xu spends much of his time researching Condensed matter physics, Quantum, Surface states, Fermion and Berry connection and curvature. His work on Heterojunction as part of general Condensed matter physics study is frequently linked to Insulator, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Quantum study also includes fields such as

  • Surface which intersects with area such as Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope and Photocurrent,
  • Electron and related Wave function.

The Surface states study combines topics in areas such as Symmetry and Electronic band structure. His Fermion research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Weyl semimetal, Dispersion, Degenerate energy levels and Dirac. His study looks at the intersection of Topological insulator and topics like Gravitational singularity with Dirac fermion.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Discovery of topological Weyl fermion lines and drumhead surface states in a room temperature magnet (161 citations)
  • Observation of the nonlinear Hall effect under time-reversal-symmetric conditions (135 citations)
  • Topological chiral crystals with helicoid-arc quantum states (126 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Electron
  • Condensed matter physics

His primary areas of study are Quantum, Condensed matter physics, Semimetal, Surface states and Hall effect. Su-Yang Xu performs multidisciplinary study in Condensed matter physics and Homochirality in his work. His research investigates the link between Semimetal and topics such as Quantum oscillations that cross with problems in Magnetoresistance, Dirac, Current and Chiral anomaly.

His research in Surface states intersects with topics in Rotational symmetry, Electronic band structure, Topological insulator and Homogeneous space. The concepts of his Topological insulator study are interwoven with issues in Brillouin zone, Electronic structure and Gravitational singularity. Within one scientific family, Su-Yang Xu focuses on topics pertaining to Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope under Surface, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Photocurrent.
