Function and Responsibilities:

Working with Dr. Sergey Lobanov and Dr. Sergio Speziale, I mainly focus on the optical properties (especially refractive index), and the densities of SiO2-Al2O3-MgO-CaO-Na2O silicate glasses under extreme conditions, we aim to give the model for the density of silicate glasses and melts at high pressure in order to give a possible inference for the evolution of structure and composition of mantle.

Research Interests:

  • Physical properties of minerals  under extreme conditions
  • Evolution of structures and compositions of mantle
  • Phase transitions of composite molecular systems inside planets
  • New materials under high pressure

Career:

  • November 2024-Present: Postdoc, GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences, Potsdam
