TEACHING EXPERIENCES
During the periods of Jun. 1996--Feb. 1999 and Dec. 2001--Jan. 2003, I worked as an assistant professor in
Qufu Normal University of P. R. China. I normally taught 8-12 hours per week. I have taught several courses
at both undergraduate and graduate levels. The courses I have taught during these periods include: Atomic
Physics, Optics, Thermodynamics, Statistical and Thermal Physics, Classical Mechanics, Quantum
Mechanics, Group Theory.
RESEARCH EXPERIENCES


Before 1999, I worked on fractal structure of porous media, the flux creep in high-temperature
superconductors.
During my PHD period, 1999-2003, my research focuses on the structure and stability of clusters and
nanowires. The non-uniform elastic deformation in multi-twinned nanoparticles and nanorod structures
was studied using both numerical and analytical methods.
From 2003-2005, during my postdoctoral study period in Sweden, I worked on one of the most
challenging problems in the field of nanomaterials: the growth mechanism of carbon nanotubes (CNTs).
My MD simulation, for the first time, successfully showed the nucleation of single-walled carbon
nanotubes (SWNT) structure on the metal catalyst particle in the temperature range (800 K—1400 K),
which was closed to the experimental temperature and explained the symmetry breaking during this
process. This research has high impact in the field of carbon nanotubes. I have published more than 15
papers during this period and they are cited over 150 times until now.
Recently, my studies at Rice University include several topics related to carbon nanomaterials. (1).
Carbon based nanomaterials for hydrogen storage. I developed a SWNT based foam structure
theoretically, which was proved to be one of the best media for hydrogen storage by Grand Canonical
Monte Carlo simulations. The mechanisms of hydrogen storage via chemical absorption and ‘spillover’
mechanism was explored by ab initio calculation and thermodynamic analyses; (2). The superplasticity
of carbon nanotubes, dislocation theory in single- and multi- walled carbon nanotubes, defects
formation in carbon materials, nucleation and sublimation of giant fullerenes, and related topics.
Collaborated with experimentist, Dr. Jianyu Huang at Sandia Lab, we explained a series of confusing
experimental observations: e.g., breaking of Frank Criteria in two dimensional materials, linear
evaporation rate and coalescence of giant fullerenes, dislocation climb and glide in MWNTs, carbon
nanotube shrinkage via 5|7 dislocation climb. These works were published in Phys. Rev. Lett, Nano
Lett. and Small recently. (3). The growth mechanism of carbon nanotubes which is supported by NSF
grant (Co-PI, NSF-grant number 0731246) and collaborated with several experimental groups in this
field (e.g., CNL of Rice University; Dr. Avetik R. Harutyunyan, Honda Company; Jianyu Huang,
Sandia National lab.). I develop a model to explain the chirality angle bias during the SWNT nucleation
stage and the model was studied in detail by ab initio calculations. (4). Collaborated with Prof. Jun Lou
of Rice University, I successfully simulated the abnormal friction in CNT arrays and nanodiamond.
