LIU Sumeng

LIU Sumeng is an Assistant Professor in the School of Mechanical Engineering at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. Their research focuses on micro-nano engineering sciences, with an emphasis on transition metal organometallic chemistry and inorganic chemistry, as well as the development of chemical tools for engineering applications. Prior to joining Shanghai Jiao Tong University in 2023, LIU Sumeng served as a Postdoc Researcher at the University of California, Riverside, and earned a Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. Their work includes publications in prestigious journals such as the Journal of the American Chemical Society and Organometallics, and contributions to the development of chemical vapor deposition techniques.

Liu Sumeng is a researcher at Shanghai Jiao Tong University specializing in inorganic chemistry, organometallic chemistry, and material chemistry. Their work focuses on the development of chemical vapor deposition (CVD) techniques for the synthesis of metallic and superconducting thin films, with an emphasis on area-selective deposition and the use of precursor gases and inhibitors. Liu's research also explores the synthesis and characterization of metal complexes, particularly platinum and molybdenum compounds, for catalytic and deposition applications. Their studies include the interconversion of metal complexes, the formation of alkylidene and olefin complexes, and the role of ligands in catalytic processes. The research highlights the importance of controlled nucleation and growth mechanisms in the fabrication of high-quality functional materials.
