Xue Qikun (born December 1962) is a Chinese experimental physicist known for work on topological materials and the quantum anomalous Hall effect.

Quantum context

Xue's group reported experimental observation of the quantum anomalous Hall effect in magnetic topological-insulator films. The effect shows quantized Hall conductance without an externally applied magnetic field.

His work links condensed-matter experiment, topology, magnetism, and quantum transport in Physics:Quantum anomalous Hall effect.
