In 2018, Liu won an NSF Major Research Instrumentation grant to construct a room-temperature apparatus for improving the measurement of the neutron electric dipole moment. In 2011-2016, she led the UCNtau experiment, as a co-spokesperson the experiment now holds the record of the most precise measurement of the neutron lifetime.

She studied the magnetic excitations in cryogenic oxygen solids for UCN production in the Lujan Center of Neutron Scattering.

This breakthrough prompted the investments of several multi-million dollar UCN facilities around the world, including the Los Alamos National Laboratory, the PULSTAR reactor at the North Carolina State University, the TRIGA reactor at Mainz University in Germany, and the Paul Scherrer Institut in Switzerland. In her dissertation work, she solved the critical issue of excessive loss of UCN due to upscattering by para-D2 molecules in solid D2 and made the world's first working solid deuterium source for UCN production. She specializes in experimental tools using Ultra-Cold Neutrons (UCN). Liu's research focuses on symmetry tests and fundamental neutron physic to understand matter creation and nucleosynthesis in the early Universe. In 2022, she was recruited to join UIUC through the U of I Distinguished Faculty Recruitment Program. She taught at Indiana University from 2005-2022 and was named the James H. She was a Sloan Research Fellow (2007-2008), a Rosen Scholar (2016-2017), and an APS fellow since 2018. She is an alumna of National Taiwan University. Liu completed her doctoral research in Experimental Nuclear Physics at Princeton University, followed by a postdoctoral fellowship at the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center as a Director’s Funded Post-Doctoral Fellow.
