Congjun Wu is a Professor Emeritus in the Department of Physics at the University of California, San Diego. He obtained his PhD from Stanford University in 2005. His research interests encompass novel phases and properties of condensed matter systems, particularly focusing on cold atom systems, unconventional magnetism, orbital physics in transition metal oxides, superconductivity, spin-orbit coupling, spintronics, excitons, and quantum phase transitions. He has contributed to the understanding of strongly correlated bosonic and fermionic systems with cold atoms and has developed numerical algorithms for dimensional quantum systems. His notable publications include works on spectroscopic imaging scanning tunneling microscopy, unconventional metamagnetic electron states, and the helical liquid edge quantum spin Hall systems. He has collaborated with prominent physicists and has a significant body of work in theoretical condensed matter physics.
