Short Biography:

Dr. Fan's PhD project was Brillouin spectroscopy of acoustic phonons of porous silicon and phase-change materials. His postdoc research in Germany was about patterned growth and optical properties of ZnO nanowires, and in Cambridge he worked on ferroelectric microtubes. Since joining NTU in 2008, he works on exploring new materials and understanding their functions in energy conversion and storage processes, including catalysis for H2 generation and CO2 reduction,new batteries and flexible energy devices. He pioneered the application of atomic layer deposition and high-power plasma in synthesizing and tailoring energy materials.  His group publishes the 1st Review article on Zn-ion battery. Currently his group focuses on developping high-capacity and low-cost Zn based batteries and atomic electrocatalysts (see more details)

Dr. Fan widely collaborates. He has co-authored more than 330 journal papers with an H-index of 107 (WoS). He has been recognized as Highly Cited Researcher consecutively since 2016. He is currently the Editor-in-Chief of Materials Today Energy, and editorial/advisory board member of several journals, including Energy and Environmental Sciences, eScience, Small, Advanced Science, Advanced Materials Technology, and Next Materials.
