He received his bachelor's and Master's degrees in physics from Hebei Normal University in 1988 and 1993, and his Doctor's degree from Institute of Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences in April 1998. He is now a distinguished professor at Beijing Institute of Technology.

From May 1998 to July 2002, he worked as a visiting scholar and postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Physics, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. From August 2002 to September 2011, he was a professor and doctoral supervisor in the Department of Physics, Beijing Normal University. In October 2011, he was transferred to the School of Physics, Beijing Institute of Technology.

For many years, we have been committed to the physical properties and application research of photonic crystals and low dimensional nanostructures, exploring the use of artificial micro and nanostructures to regulate classical and quantum light fields, and have achieved multiple innovative results:
(1) The first observation of the Zitterbedegung effect of light and sound has proven a long-standing theoretical prediction in relativistic quantum mechanics. The research highlights of Nature China specifically report on this work, and the paper published in Nature also provides good references and comments on this work< br> (2) The quantum Talbot effect was observed for the first time in experiments using single photon and entangled two-photon methods, correcting some misconceptions in quantum imaging research in the past< br> (3) The phenomenon of negative refraction was observed for the first time in photonic quasicrystals, and a large absolute photonic band gap was found in 12 fold photonic quasicrystals, pointing out an error in an important article in Nature< br> (4) Through rigorous numerical simulation, negative refraction was first observed in phononic crystals, and negative refraction of autorotators was discovered< br> (5) It was the first to theoretically reveal the dynamic crossover behavior from quasi one-dimensional to three-dimensional in disordered dynamics, which was later confirmed by experiments< br> (6) Designed multi-layer graphene and topological insulator materials, and demonstrated through rigorous numerical simulations that waves propagate in these materials with similar characteristics to corresponding electronic systems< br> (7) Negative electron energy loss and nonlinear Smith Purcell effect were observed, and anomalous optical spin Hall effect was found on the surface of chiral media< br> (8) More than 90% of giant tunneling magnetoresistance was first discovered in ferromagnetic coupled double junctions, which was experimentally confirmed< br> (9) We have prepared metamaterials wavebase chips using 3D printing technology and implemented quantum search algorithms< br> (10) For the first time, the high-dimensional manipulation effect and noise suppression phenomenon have been accurately verified experimentally by quantitatively introducing controllable isotropic noise methods in high-dimensional quantum systems< br> In Physics Rev. Lett., Adv. Matter., Appl. Phys. Lett., and Phys More than 160 papers have been published in core journals such as RevA/B/E, including those in Nature, Science, Nature Materials, Nature Physics, and Physics Papers in SCI journals such as Rev. Lett. have been cited more than 4000 times. I have given invitation presentations at international conferences multiple times, and my research results have been specifically reported on by Physics Web, Physics. World, and others. In 2004, he was selected for the New Century Excellent Talents Support Program by the Ministry of Education, and in 2008, he was awarded the National Science Fund for Distinguished Young Scholars. Currently undertaking multiple sub projects such as the National Natural Science Foundation of China General Project and the Ministry of Science and Technology Major Research Program/Quantum Control< br>
