Research Interests:1. Computational condensed matter & materials physic: focusing mainly on the understanding of fundamental atomic properties of materials surfaces and interfaces. In process such as catalytic reactions, lattice rearrangement. Recent topics are mainly on various low dimension materials including single atom catalyst, transition metal compound surfaces, 2-D materials interfaces, etc.. 2. Static and Dynamic ab initio calculations (using VASP and CP2K) to predict or explain the evolution of atomic structure observed in the experiments (such as TEM).

Postgraduate training

We are members of Prof Wang rongming’s Group (https://publons.com/researcher/1356934/rongming-wang/). He is in charge of Beijing Key Laboratory for Magneto-Photoelectrical Composite and Interface Science, and also a subgroup leader of Beijing Advanced Innovation Center of Materials Genome Engineering. In the study of “atomic movement and properties of low dimensional materials”, We have both professional experimental tools such as spherical aberration-corrected high-resolution electron microscope, and theoretical tools like VASP and CP2K.
