Biography

Education: 

  • Ph.D. in Optics, Jilin University, China, 2001
  • M.S. in Optics, Jilin University, China, 1998

Research Experience:

  • 2005- present-   Researcher, University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign Urbana, IL, USA.
  • 1998-2004-   Graduate Research Assistant, Jilin University

Research focus: 

  • I am interested in studying fundamental properties of solid state systems, such as the correlated electron systems that have rich phase diagrams as a function of doping, including insulating, ferromagnetic metal, and antiferromagnetic ground states. 
  • I am using various optical techniques, including reflectance and light-scattering spectroscopies, to characterize the excitation spectra of these materials, and to elucidate the mechanisms driving the different phase transitions. 
  • I am also interested in synthesizing and characterizing several materials using flux and other crystal growth techniques and analyze their properties using various characterization methods.
