Education

2007-2011 University of Science and Technology of China, B.S. in Chemistry.

2011-2016 University of California, Los Angeles, Ph.D. in Chemistry (AdvisorXiangfeng Duan).

Research

The research in Lin group focuses on developing solution-phase synthetic approaches to versatile low-dimensional semiconductor, metal, and dielectric nanocrystals, studying the surface ligand chemistry, and thus formulating a wide range of solution-processable ink materials. With the scalable assembly of ink materials into solid-state thin films using spin coating or ink printing methods, we are interested in fabricating flexible electronic devices including field-effect transistors and memory devices for diverse large-scale and low-cost applications.
