About
Ph.D. researcher with strong hands-on experience in MEMS / micro-nanofabrication and sensor prototyping. Skilled in thin-film deposition, lithography-based patterning workflows, and materials/device characterization (SEM, XRD, XPS). Experienced in combining COMSOL/MATLAB simulation with experiments for iterative design and performance validation.
Experience
Postdoctoral Researcher, School of Information and Electronic Engineering at Zhejiang University (ZJU) (2023-09 – Present)
- Developed metasurface-based optical sensing devices with design–fabrication iteration and characterization-driven optimization.
- Used COMSOL/MATLAB to simulate electromagnetic responses, guiding geometry/material choices and shortening prototyping cycles.
- Supported sensing-related project execution (planning, experiments, reporting), including lithium-ion battery safety monitoring.
Visiting Scholar, Department of Chemistry at National University of Singapore (NUS) (2025-09 – 2026-09)
- Collaborating on nanofabrication techniques and functional material integration for sensing applications; contributing to process verification and characterization.
Ph.D. Researcher, School of Optics and Electronic Information at Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST) (2016-09 – 2023-03)
- Prototyped and tested sensor devices (including SAW-related research workflows) via iterative fabrication, measurement, and analysis.
- Optimized thin-film material processes for sensing (e.g., SnO2, Bi2S3) and linked microstructure/morphology to device performance using SEM/XRD and complementary characterization.
- Performed defect/failure investigation based on metrology evidence and improved device reliability through experiment-guided iterations.
- Built quantitative models and data processing scripts to interpret sensor signals and improve signal quality.
