RESEARCH EXPERIENCE
Dr. Xiaosong Liu is a full professor of Shanghai Institute of Microsystem and Information Technology, Chinese Academy of Science (SIMIT, CAS), and an adjunct professor of School of Materials, ShanghaiTech University. He got B.S. degree in Astrophysics from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) in 1998, and Ph.D. degree in Condensed Matter Physics . From 2003 to 2007, he worked at the Synchrotron Radiation Center (SRC) in Wisconsin, USA to explore the electronic structure and bonding of bio-functionalized surfaces.
Dr. Xiaosong Liu has a substantial experience in material physics, X-ray spectroscopy, and instrumentation development with synchrotron light sources. His scientific research interests are mainly focused on the electronic properties of energy materials, surface functionalization and surface chemistry, the catalytic reactions for energy conversion. He has published more than 40 peer-reviewed papers on top journals, including Nat. Commons, JACS, PRL, Adv. Materials.
