Introduction

As an associate professor in the School of Materials Science and Engineering at Beijing University of Chemical Technology, my research work mainly focuses on the design and application of key materials for Na+-ion batteries and Li-CO2 batteries.After completing the PhD, I worked at Hanyang University in South Korea and at Case Western Reserve University successively to conduct postdoctoral research.Up to now, more than 70 high-quality SCI academic papershave been published, including more than 50 papers by the first author and corresponding author in the journals of Angew. Chem., Adv. Energy Mater., ACS Energy Lett., ACS Nano, Adv. Funct. Mater., Small etc.; two highly cited papers, with a total of more than 3,500 citations and an H-factor of 33. Additionally,four domestic invention patents and two U. S. invention patents have been applied, two of them have been authorized.
