Mr LU Zhou Guang, a graduate student supervised by Dr Jonathan C Y Chung, was recently awarded the prestigious Fulbright Scholarship after a keen competition with other applicants to study at the State University of New York in Stony Brook for a period of ten months. The topic of his study will be Nuclear Magnetic Resonance analyses, which are essential to improve our understanding of the electrochemical properties of Li-ion thin film electrodes. Our warm congratulations for the award and wishes for a fruitful visit go to Mr Lu.
