Research Interest

My research focuses on the fabrication and applications of nanomaterials, as well as the characterization of their properties, including
  • Thin film (2-D) deposition of metals and metal oxides via atomic layer deposition (ALD) and chemical vapor deposition(CVD)
  • Particles (0-D) and3-D structures from sol-gel of metal oxides
  • Surface characterizations

Highlights

  • Photocatalytic zinc oxide on flexible polyacrylonitrile nanofibers via sol–gel coaxial electrospinning. 2020. Ceramics International, 46, 8287-8292
  • Microencapsulation of n-octadecane and methyl palmitate phase change materials in silica by spray drying process. 2020.Powder Technology, 361, 910-916
  • Corrosion of amorphous alumina in deionized water under mild condition. 2020. Applied Surface Science, 499, 143906
