Dr. Xiaodan Gu
Associate Professor
Bio
Xiaodan Gu earned his Ph.D. from department of Polymer Science and Engineering at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, advised by Prof. Thomas P. Russell, focusing on the self-assembly of block copolymers and their lithographic applications. Subsequently, he started a post-doctoral appointment co-advised by Zhenan Bao and Michael F. Toney at Stanford University and SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, where he studied the morphology of roll-to-roll printed electronics using real time X-ray scattering techniques. His research interests revolve around various fundamental polymer physics phenomena related to conjugated polymers and their derivative devices. His group studies structure, dynamic, and morphology of conjugated polymers and aim to link their molecular structures to their macroscopic properties through advanced metrology with an emphasis on scattering techniques.
