Research areas/focuses:
Our group focuses on the design, synthesis, characterization and property-tuning of novel quantum materials. Until now, I have published over 20 papers in SCI-indexed peer-reviewed journals, among which 15 as the first author and/or corresponding author, including Sci. Adv., PNAS, Angew. Chem. etc. I currently serve as a member of the Phys. Rev. B Early Career Researcher Advisory Board. Students and postdocs who are interested in condensed matter physics, experimental physics, and solid-state physics/chemistry are welcome to join the group.
