Gang Cao is an American condensed matter physicist, academic, author, and researcher. He is a professor of physics at the University of Colorado Boulder. and Director of Center for Experiments on Quantum Materials.

Cao has published two books and more than 270 articles. His work has been cited more than 17,000 times, and his h-index is 68, according to Google Scholar. Cao's research interests focus on discovery and synthesis of 4d- and 5d-transition metal materials and study of physical properties of these materials as functions of temperature, magnetic field, pressure and electrical current. His most recent book entitled ''Physics of Spin-Orbit-Coupled Oxides'' reviews recent work in the field of 4d- and 5d-transition metal oxides, a field he helped initiate in the late 1990s.

Cao was an elected Fellow of the American Physical Society (DCMP) in 2009. Provided by Wikipedia
