Assistant Professor Department of Mechanical and Energy Engineering
Liang Guo received his bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering, from Tsinghua University in 2009. He conducted graduate research on nanoscale heat transfer in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Purdue University. His supervisor was Xianfan Xu, one of the outstanding alumni of the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC). His projects included heat transfer across metal-dielectric interfaces, wavelength tuning effect in time-domain thermoreflectance for measuring thermal properties, and phonon dynamics in thermoelectric materials. He obtained his Ph.D. degree in September 2014. From October 2014 to July 2017, as a postdoctoral researcher in the group of Professor Graham Fleming, the member of the National Academy of Sciences, USA, he utilized femtosecond two-dimensional electronic spectroscopy (2DES) to study energy transfer in novel two-dimensional semiconductors in chemistry, University of California, Berkeley. His project was exciton dynamics in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs). He published more than 20 SCI-listed articles in world-renowned journals, including Nature Physics, Physical Review B, Applied Physics Letters, ACS Photonics, etc.
He joined the Department of Mechanical and Energy Engineering at Southern University of Science and Technology in January 2018. He is focusing on nanoscale energy conversion and transfer, femtosecond laser manufacture, and energetic particles dynamics based on ultrafast spectroscopy. He teaches "Energy Engineering Fundamentals" and "Advanced Laser Processing and Inspection Technology" He manages 2 grants from the National Natural Science Foundation of China, 1 grant from the Natural Science Foundation of Guangdong Province, 1 grant from the Characteristic Innovation Project of the Department of Education of Guangdong Province, 1 grant from University Consistent Support Program of Shenzhen Natural Science Foundation, 1 grant from the Shenzhen Science and Technology Program, and he also receives (Level C) high-caliber personnel financial support from Shenzhen Science and Technology Program.
