I am interested in understanding structural, physical, and chemical properties of minerals in geological processes, on the basis of using density functional theory (DFT) modeling and synchrotron X-ray measurements. I completed Ph.D. in Earth and Environmental Sciences at the University of Michigan and worked as a postdoctoral researcher in the Interfacial Processes Group (IPG), Argonne National Lab.
News
December 2021. My paper in press "An ab-initio study on the thermodynamics of disulfide, sulfide, and bisulfide incorporation into apatite and the development of a more comprehensive temperature, pressure, pH, and composition-dependent model for ionic substitution in minerals" is available on the American Mineralogist website (https://doi.org/10.2138/am-2022-8250 ).
September 2021. My new article " Replacement of Calcium Carbonate Polymorphs by Cerussite" is available online (https://doi.org/10.1021/acsearthspacechem.1c00177).
November 2020. I visit APS for Transmission X-ray Microscopy (TXM) measurement on replacement reaction of calcium carbonate minerals.
October 2020. My new article "Reduction of uranyl and uranyl-organic complexes mediated by magnetite and ilmenite: a combined electrochemical AFM and DFT study" has been accepted for publication in Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gca.2020.10.016).
July 2020. My lab permits limited operation, I resume my experiment at Argonne.
March 2020. I start to stay home. Wish you stay healthy!
December 2019. I visit APS for Transmission X-ray Microscopy (TXM) measurement.
