Career Profile
My name is Bin Yu, a Ph.D. (Supervisor: Prof. Zhonghua Zhang) at Shandong University, China. During my Ph.D period, I focused on the synthesis of nanoporous metals by dealloying for photothermal-related applications and explored the dealloying mechanism by in-situ and ex-situ characterizations. If you have any questions concerning my information, please feel free to ask/contact me. I am happy to provide any additional information or references upon request. You can download my resume/CV here.
