I am currently a Ph.D. candidate in the Applied Science & Technology (AS&T) Graduate Group at the University of California, Berkeley. I work with Prof. Junqiao Wu at both the UC Berkeley campus and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. Prior to Berkeley, I obtained my B.S. degree in Physics from Tsinghua University, as a member of the Tsinghua XueTang Talents Program.
My Ph.D. research focuses on developing new materials for energy-saving in thermal regulations, as well as discovering new thermal transport phenomena in solid materials.
I am also serving as an advisor of capstone projects at Fung Institute, UC Berkeley, my project accepts M.Eng. students from the College of Engineering every year.

Temperature Adaptive Radiative Coating (TARC) is an energy-free metastructure that can automatically regulate the temperature of a system by adapting its thermal emissivity to ambient temperature. It has great potential in saving energy in HVAC system and reduce the greenhouse gas emission. (details)
With the suspended pads microdevice system and time domain thermoreflectance (TDTR) measurement, I can comprehensively measure the thermal conductivity and explore novel phenomena in solid materials, such as topological insulator nanoribbons, perovskite thin films, and nanowires.
