I am a post-doctoral fellow at Harvard Physics Department .

I received my B.Sc. in Applied Physics from the University of Science and Technology of China in 2013, where I worked in Prof. Xianhui Chen's group to study novel unconventional superconductors, e.g. iron-based superconductors and organic superconductors. 

I joined Prof. James Schilling’s group at Washington University in St. Louis as a graduate student in the fall of 2013, and studied magnetism and superconductivity in lanthanides under extreme pressures by using diamond anvil cells. I discovered strong enhancement of magnectic ordering temperature in Nd and superconductivity in Yb (the 54th superconducting element). 

I joined Prof. Isaac Silvera's group at Harvard University as a post-doctoral fellow in May 2018. Now I am working on a project of producing metallic hydrogen and studying its potential room-temperature superconductivity and metastability under extreme pressures (~ 5Mbar).
