Research Interests

My current research focuses on developing novel nanoporous materials thin-films, mainly including 2D materials, MOFs and COFs. Featuring with nanoconfined channels, these thin-films can be used for various applications such as gas separation, water desalination, ions sieving, nanofluidics as well as flexible nanoelectronics.
