8/2004 – present: Research Specialist and Postgraduate Researcher, University of California, Riverside

Development of a method to control the coating of organic polymers on Si surface o Design and synthesis of macro-molecule to step-wise growth of polymer on surface. o First reported the method to grow a film of porphyrins layer by layer with controlled thickness. o Detected electrochemical and spectroscopic properties of films. o Characterized the thin film by using XPS, ellipsometry, AFM etc. o Achieved the goals to get best surface charge and electron-transfer rate simultaneously.

Surface engineering of polymers and monolayers of porphyrin for molecular memory o Design porphyrin molecules with tails which can form polymer or monolayer on surface. o Develop a method to improve the efficiency of material coating on surfaces from 2 hours to 2 minutes. o First achieved a device with organic materials surviving a relatively high-temperature (400 oC) and a large number of operational cycles (~ 1012).

Electrochemical measurement system build-up

o Built a home-made electrochemical system, optimized procedures and parameters. o Applied the system to measure the electron transfer rate and charge retention time of molecules on silicon surface. o Investigated the effects of surface morphology, ion mobility, surface charge and surface coverage on electron-transfer rate. o Compassed a clear path to develop the hybrid molecular electronics.

Design and development of micro-electrodes for hybrid molecular electronics o Designed and fabricated micro-electrodes on metals and semiconductors. o Successfully applied these kinds of electrodes in the measurement of electrochemical properties of materials on surface. o First built a solid electrochemical cell based on these micro-electrodes, which is potentially used for molecular memory.
