Education
  • PhD (Physical Chem) University of Wisconsin, Madison 2006
  • MS (Chem) Peking University 2000
  • BS (Chem) Nankai University 1997
Biography
My Bachelor of Science degree in chemistry was awarded by Nankai University. I obtained my PhD degree in physical chemistry under the guidance of professor James Skinner in University of Wisconsin, Madison. Prior to Joining Nanyang Technological University, I worked as a postdoctoral fellow in professor George Schatz’s group in Northwestern University.
Research Interests
I am interested in exploring optical properties of nanomaterials by theoretical and computational tools. Currently, my research will focus on three directions: three-dimensional photonic metamaterials at optical frequencies, high sensitivity substrates for surface enhanced Raman scattering and fluorescence, and drug release from dendrimersomes.
