Research AreasResearch Interests 1. Graphene Growth and Applications Graphene is a promising advanced material for broad applications in integrated circuits, radio frequency transistor, composite materials, transparent conducting electrodes and energy storage. Although graphene, particularly the electron transport property in graphene, has been widely studied, synthesis, thermal property and application are still challenging. My research group focuse on the synthesis of monolayer and multilayer graphene by chemical vapor deposition(CVD) on metals; thermal and electron transport characterization; doping effect of metal deposition on graphene; applications in gas sensor and transparent conducting electrodes. 2. 2D Semiconductor Materials. 2D semiconductor is a type of natural semiconductor with thicknesses on the atomic scale. The rising research attention towards 2D semiconductors started with a discovery by Geim and Novoselov et al. in 2004. My research group focuse on the synthesis and applications of transition metal dichalcogenides and hexagonal boron nitride by molecule beam epitaxy (MBE) and CVD.
