Sirringhaus Lab

 

Biography

Yucheng's currently working towards an experiment/theory(computation) combined PhD project with a focus on the transient localization transport phenomenon and its relevant thermoelectric and spin behaviors. Before joining the group, He finished his MRes from Imperial with a theoretical project on the electron-phonon coupling problems in molecular systems. Prior to that, He obtained an integrated MSc Physics degree from UCD (Ireland) where he started to learn quantum many-body theory and research the quantum quench dynamics of the Hubbard model. Before coming to physics, he is originally a materials scientist who did carbon nanomaterials synthesis and battery characterizations during his undergrad at BUCT (China).
