Faculty
Dr. Yi Li, currently serves as Tenure-track Associate Professor of School of Microelectronics, SUSTech. He has been working on nanoplasmonics, nano-optics and biochips over his research stay in Zhejiang University (China), imec & KU Leuven (Belgium), Delft University of Technology (TUD, Netherland), Imperial College London (UK) as well as Ludwig-Maximilians-Universit?t München (LMU, Germany). He has published more than 30 peer-reviewed journal articles, including first author papers on 1x Nature Communications, 4x Nano Letters, 2x ACS Nano and 1x Advanced Functional Materials. Amongst them, 3 papers are recognized as the Highly Cited Paper by Essential Science Indicators (ESI). He has also given invited talks on SPIE Photonics Europe 2018, MRS Spring 2019, IMCO 2019 as well as ICMAT 2019. He has been selected to attend Lindau Nobel Laurates Meeting for Physics 2019 via Marie Curie Action Plan. He was a junior group leader (sub-group leader) of Prof. Stefan A. Maier (Chair of Hybrid Nanosystem).
