RESEARCH INTERESTS
Biomolecular electronics
​
Identify the relationship between biomolecule structure and charge transport; design and regulate the electronic properties of DNA and peptide for the application of bioelectronics devices.
Cellular imaging and recognition
​
Synthesize functional nanomaterials as probes for cellular imaging and use AFM to indentify single-molecular interactions on cellular surfaces.
Soft materials
​
Combined with surface chemistry and physics, use multiple scanning probe microscopy (SPM) techniques, like AFM/STM imaging, force spectroscopy, and recognition imaging, to probe different biomolecule systems.
Bio-inorganic hybrid materials
​
Perform surface modifications and functionalizations, synthesize new bio-inorganic hybrid materials as well as apply for sensors and bioimaging.
Electrochemistry
​
Construct electrochemical biosensor.
