2011-至今复旦大学物理系教授、博士生导师

教学与研究领域:

研究领域：实验凝聚态物理

1）研究在石墨烯中相对论效应对电子影响，包括由此引起的反常量子霍尔效应，准自旋物理等。

2）发展新的样品制备和探测手段来研究其它低维度系统的结构和电磁性质。

3）在极端物理条件下（极低温度，超强磁场）用电子输运的办法来观察所有这些低维电子体系的电磁特性，寻找可能存在的新的量子基态。

Research Interests:

Experimental   condensed matter physics, particularly the electronic properties of graphene   and other low dimensional electron systems.
