Dr. Zhixue Tian | Hebei Normal University | China

Dr. Zhixue Tian is an Associate Professor at the College of Physics and Information Engineering, Hebei Normal University, China. His research centers on first-principles calculations of material surfaces and interfaces, with a strong focus on understanding catalytic mechanisms, segregation behavior, and electronic and magnetic properties in complex systems. He earned his Ph.D. in Materials Physics and Chemistry from the University of Science and Technology Beijing, where he studied grain boundary embrittlement in metals using first-principles methods. He later conducted advanced research at Osaka University and Kyoto University in Japan under the guidance of Prof. Yoshitada Morikawa, investigating the segregation behavior of precious metals at perovskite surfaces. Dr. Tian has contributed extensively to computational materials science, employing methods such as Density Functional Theory with codes like VASP, STATE, QuantumEspresso, WIEN2K, and CASTEP. His studies have advanced understanding in fields such as surface chemistry, heterostructure interfaces, and catalytic processes, with numerous publications in high-impact journals including Applied Surface Science, Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, Nano Letters, and ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces. In addition to his research, he teaches Solid State Physics and is proficient in Unix and Windows systems as well as FORTRAN programming, bringing both theoretical and computational expertise to his academic and scientific endeavors.
