Qi LIU
- Associate Professor, Department of Physics, City University of Hong Kong
Prof. Liu Qi is currently an associate professor in the Department of Physics, City University of Hong Kong. He obtained his Ph.D from Purdue University in 2014. Before joining CityU, he worked as a postdoctoral fellow at Argonne National Laboratory. His current research interests focus on the structure-property-studies of functional materials via multiple neutron- and synchrotron-based techniques. His broad research activities include the design and synthesis of novel energy storage materials, phase transition mechanism and neutron-/synchrotron physics. Currently, Prof. Qi LIU has published 128 peer-reviewed journal papers including 14 Nature or Nature’s sister Journals such as Nature Energy and Nature Materials. He has a citation of >10,000 and H-index of 53. Also, among all the published papers, the PI has 30 papers as first or corresponding authors in the elite journals (4 Nature Energy, 1 Nature Sustainability, 2 Nature Communications, 2 Advanced Materials, et al.). Prof. Qi LIU also has 12 patents filed in the US and China. Prof. LIU has been invited to deliver more than 50 talks at international conferences, workshops, symposiums, seminars and online webinars. He is the recipient of the President’s Award 2021 by CityU and the Rising Star Lecturer (Physics) by the Hong Kong Institute of Advanced Study. In 2019, he was elected as a Committee member of the Chinese Ceramic Society (1 of 2 Hong Kong representatives).
