Wei Yang is an associate professor at the Institute of Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (IOP-CAS) in Beijing, China. He received his PhD in condensed matter physics from IOP-CAS in 2014, working on graphene-hBN superlattice. He worked as a postdoc from 2014 to 2019, first at École Normale Supérieure and CNRS in Paris on high-frequency noise themometry, then at ICOF-The Institute of Photonic Sciences in Barcelona on quantum transport and nano-mechanics of carbon nanotube. He joined the IOP-CAS as a faculty member in 2019. Currently, he mainly focuses on exploring strongly correlated phases and quantum phase transitions in moiré superlattices.
