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.
