Li Group: Atomic, Molecular and Plasma Physics

Lanzhou School of Nuclear Science and Technology

We focus on the interactions between electron and photon from atomic, molecular and cluster targets. Reliable atomic structure data and various rate coefficients, such as excitation, ionization and recombination processes are nowadays required in many different research fields from impurities transport in fusion devices to astrophysics, to XCT and extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUVL). We also investigated the high-Z plasma spectra both experimentally and theoretically using collisional-radiative model.

In addition, the group investigating the interacting between Actinide molecules and environments, which are expected to be useful for fission reactor and nuclear waste treatment.
