Dr. Liming Xie is a professor of Physical Chemistry at National Center for Nanoscience and Technology (NCNST). He received his Bachelor’s degree and Doctor’s degree from Peking University in 2004 and 2009, respectively. From 2007 to 2008, he visited MIT as a joint PhD student. From 2009 to 2012, he did his postdoctoral research at Stanford University. In 2012, he joined NCNST, focusing on nano-characterization and nanomedicine. Dr. Liming Xie has more than 20 publications on structure, spectroscopy, device and applications of low-dimensional nano materials.

Dr. Liming Xie’s current research interests are (1) atomically thin two-dimensional monolayer alloys, including synthesis, characterization, band gap engineering and applications; (2) Characterization of nano-bio interactions in physiological environments; (3) Applications of Raman and other spectroscopy in material characterizations.
