He has been engaged in basic research on the application of room temperature maser technology based on solid state quantum systems for a long time, breaking the dependence of traditional solid state quantum microwave devices on low temperature, and developing new technical means for complex microwave information processing scenarios such as new system radar, qubit manipulation and readout, and quantum sensing. Some academic achievements have been made in the research fields of maser enhanced quantum sensing, cavity quantum cooling based on solid state spin, molecular spin mechanics, and high-quality preparation of maser gain media.
