After completing his PhD in mechanical engineering at University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) and Laser Zentrum Hannover, he spent two years as a postdoc at Micro/Nano Engineering Lab in USTC. From 2018-2022, he was a research scientist at Institute of Nanotechnology/Institute of Applied Physics at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology. Since 2023, he has been working as research professor at Suzhou institute for advanced research, USTC. His research interests comprise ultrafast optics, laser-matter interaction, laser micro/nano printing as well as 3D micro/nano devices for bio-medical engineering. This research has led to over 40 publications including Nat. Commun., Adv. Mater., Adv. Funct. Mater., ACS Nano, Laser Photonics Rev., Adv. Opt. Mater, Lab Chip, etc. Relevant research has been reported by domestic and foreign media such as Nature Photonics, Phys.org, EurekAlert.org, Science and Technology Daily, China Science News, etc.. He has served as expert reviewer for many top international journals (including Adv. Mater. , ACS Nano, Adv. Mater. Technol. ). He has been granted over 6 fundings from National Natural Science Foundation of China and other institutes. He is selected into the 100-talent project of the Chinese Academy of Science.
