Folloew our growth :)
2026
Tianyu And his graduate Student Wolalorm Zudor visited the Beamline 11-IDC at Advaced Photon Source/Argonne National Lab. We perform in-situ synchrtron diffraction experiment to understand the formation of structrual disordering of rock salt oxides during the synthesis.
We received our first external grant from Links with Industry, Research Centers and National Laboratories (LINK) Program, which is supported by Louisiana Board of Regents. This grant will allow use to visit Argonne National Lab to use the advanced synchrotron characterization techniques.
2025
We participated in the Science Day event at J.S. Clark Magnet Elementary School in Monroe, where we introduced students to the chemistry behind batteries and guided them through a hands-on fruit battery activity. The kids were enthusiastic and deeply engaged!
My journely as an assistant professor just gets started at LA Tech. Classes, research are to come!
