Biography

Jian has been researching in the areas of laser technology, nonlinear optics and metrology for more than 15 years. His research has included developing ultrafast laser sources for characterising optical fibre; ultra-broadband and narrowband optical parametric oscillators for remote sensing; isotope dilution mass spectrometry based reference free methods for high accuracy gas measurement; optical phase conjugation and optical associative memory technology for information processing; correlated photon metrology for radiometric applications; modelling relationships between measurable macroscopic quantities and their corresponding surface nanostructures for nanocharacterisation; and simulating gas thermal dynamical characteristics for process optimisation or high accuracy measurement. He obtained his PhD from King's College London in 1996.
