The research on nanostructured materials started from 1990s has been mainly focusing on the unique properties of individual nanoparticle, nanowire, or nanotubes, as well as thin film based configuration. How to translate, maintain, and even enhance these fascinating properties into 3D for a transformative research to generate a real technology impact has always been a missing part.

Our group addresses the challenges in bulk nanostructured composite materials. Our research includes the rational design, scalable synthesis, hierarchical assembly, and controlled consolidation of molecular nanostructured materials, elucidation of the fundamental electronic, thermal, catalytic, and mechanical properties of these bulk nanocomposite materials, and exploration of new fundamental science and potential engineering device applications.

All of our former group members have developed very successful careers in leading industry companies (S&P 500 companies) and highly-reputable universities, such as Intel, Apple, Seagate, Michelin, LG, Seagen, BASF, Seagen, et al. We welcome highly self-motivated individuals to join our group for PhD program and postdoc training.
