Dr. Jian Min Zuo

Biography

Jian-Min Zuo is a Professor in the Monash Centre for Electron Microscopy at Monash University. He has previously held the position of Ivan Racheff Professor of Materials Science and Engineering at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. He completed his Ph.D. in Physics at Arizona State University in 1989 and was a postdoctoral fellow at the NSF Center for High-Resolution Electron Microscopy from 1989 to 1993. His research group has pioneered studies on atomistic structures of nanostructured materials, ultrafast electron diffraction, and the chemical bonding of interfaces, along with the development of techniques for coherent electron nanodiffraction and scanning electron nanodiffraction. He is a fellow of the American Physical Society and the Microscopy Society of America, and he has received the Ernst Ruska Prize from the German Society for Electron Microscopy and the Gjonnes Award from the International Union of Crystallography. Professor Zuo is also a co-author of the book "Advanced Transmission Electron Microscopy: Imaging Diffraction Nanoscience," published in 2017 by Springer.
