In-situ probing of nanosecond laser induced ablation in Cu                                                                                                                                   Aug. 2016 - Cur.

Directed templating of semiconductor nanocrystals through laser melting                                                                                                     Aug. 2014 - Cur.
Graduate Student Researcher, Laser Thermal Lab, UC Berkeley                                                                                                    Supervisor: Costas P. Grigoropoulos
  • The project aims to seed nanocrystals in the nanocavities through recrystallization introduced by the laser melting. The nanocrystals will seeds the epitaxy of other semiconductor materials enabling site specific templating.
  • Now we obtained the nanocavities, through laser interference, then we are proceeding to introduce laser melting. [more]

Flow distribution effect on dual-media thermocline thermal storage performance                                                                                 Aug.2012 - Aug.2013
Academic Talents Program, Department of Thermal Eng., Tsinghua University                                                                    Supervisor: Zhen Yang, Yuanyuan Duan
  • For the first time considered non-uniform flow in dual-media thermocline and discovered unexpected results: non-uniformity increases efficiency.
  • Independently abstracted inlet distribution regimes, simulated porous media heat transfer by UDF in FLUENT, and conducted the first complete entropy analysis in dual-media thermal storage to validate the results.[more]
