Congratulations to Dr. Jinming Liu. He has successfully defended his PhD thesis titled "Synthesis of Magnetic Materials for Rare-Earth-Free Permanent Magnets Applications"!

Dr. Liu first experimentally reported body-centered tetragonal (bct) Fe nanoparticles. He first reported α”-Fe16N2 foils synthesized by a low-temperature nitriding process. He has authored and co-authored over 20 journal papers including Acta Materialia, Physical Review Materials, Small, and ACS Applied Materials & Interface, etc.
