物理学博士，毕业于南京大学。主要从事凝聚态物理方向的材料物理研究，研究对象集中在氧化石墨烯、层状氢氧化物、MOF等二维材料。具体工作以二维钴基能源材料为研究对象，通过氧化石墨烯辅助合成，构建超薄多孔、大比表面积、多活性位点、强导电性的多功能材料（比如：CoPS、CoNi LDH-GO和P,N-PCCo/rGO），系统研究和分析超薄材料在电催化分解水（析氢、析氧和全解水）、氧还原催化、超级电容器等能源存储和转化方面的电化学性能。

以第一作者已在Science China Materials, ACS Applied Energy Materials，Applied Catalysis A, General， Journal of Alloys and Compounds等期刊上发表SCI论文十余篇。
