BioMy research interests lie at the intersection of materials science and condensed matter physics. I work on thin film synthesis of oxide and metal systems by molecular-beam epitaxy (MBE). Applications range from answering fundamental physics questions about high temperature superconductivity to developing practical synthesis routines and new materials for next generation electron sources. In addition, I work on projects involving spectroscopic probes of thin film systems, including angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and resonant soft x-ray scattering (RSXS) measurements.

BioMy current research focuses on the design of catalytic materials. I have studied atomistic phenomena on catalytic surfaces to develop materials with improved catalytic capability under the philosophy of rational design. To achieve this goal, I use computational approaches, e.g., first-principles calculations and artificial intelligence (AI). Applications include heterogeneous catalysis for exhaust emission control, hydrogen production, and utilization of emission gas to realize carbon neutralization.

Zisheng Zhang
Postdoctoral Scholar, Photon Science, SLAC
BioZisheng Zhang is an incoming Assistant Professor of Chemical Engineering, starting in Fall 2026. He is currently a Stanford Energy Fellow at SUNCAT Center for Interface Science and Catalysis, co-hosted by Dr. Frank Abild-Pedersen (SLAC) and Prof. Thomas Jaramillo (Chemical Engineering). He is interested in physics-steered, complexity-driven, and AI-accelerated simulations for understanding, design, and discovery of novel functional catalysts, materials, molecules, and interfaces.
ZZ grew up in Wuhan and received undergraduate training in both experimental and computational chemistry at South University of Science and Technology of China (with Prof. Jun Li) and University of California, Los Angeles (with Prof. Anastassia N. Alexandrova). He then stayed at UCLA and obtained his M.Sc. and Ph.D. in Theoretical and Computational Chemistry. During PhD study, he did research internship at Argonne National Lab in 2022 with Dr. Maria Chan. -
