  Develop ultra-high spatial resolution and ultra-fast time resolution scanning optical microscopy from visible light to mid-infrared wavelengths, and use optical and low-temperature transport techniques to probe the electronic and optoelectronic properties of low-dimensional nanostructures. Our research encompasses three specific aspects: innovative optical and transport measurement techniques for characterizing nanostructures, in-depth exploration of the optical and optoelectronic physics of low-dimensional materials, and the exploration of optical/electrical control of nanodevices.

Undergraduate Courses:

Optical measurement of low-dimensional materials

Introduction to Information Science


Mainly direct two National Natural Science Foundation of China projects, a Shanghai Pujiang Talents Program, and a High-Level Foreign Expert Projects of the Ministry of Science and Technology -Personal Project.
