Welcome Dr. Xi Zhang to Join our InstituteViews [2923] Delivery time :2014-09-01 12:52:14
Dr. Xi Zhang has come into our institute in September, 2014. She obtained Ph.D in School of Electrical & Electronic Engineering of Nanyang Technological University in Singapore, and work as a Reserach Fellow in Nanyang Technological University after post graduate. Her researches are mainly on Bond-Order-Length-Strength correlation modified Hubbard Model、 the physical origin of the ultra-high catalysis and unique optical properties of ultra-low-coordinated gold atoms, and the physical origin of Dirac-Fermi Polaron of graphene nanoribbons.
