Biography
My research covers several multi-disciplines, from electrochemistry to prepare nano/micro-porous materials including semiconductors and noble metals, to sensors to monitor pollutants from waters water using SERS (surface-enhanced Raman scattering), AIE (aggregation induced emission), electrochemistry, nano-device (nanowire, nanogap, nanomembrane etc.), to environmental monitoring and remediation using advanced electrochemistry, nano-materials, lab-on-chip etc., to development of portable devices for field test and application. To strengthen my background, I have worked in several countries including China (-2004), Germany (2006-2006), Singapore (2006-2010) and Australia (2010-).
