Thermal and energy science

Research in thermal and energy science mainly includes phonon transport in meta-materials, optical absorption/chemical reaction/thermal transport in laser-based processing, thermal transport in clathrate hydrate, phonon-phonon and phonon-electron interactions in metals and semiconductors, two-phase and phase change in porous media, nuclear waste storage and transportation safety, as well as advanced thermal transport technologies.
