معرفی
Dr. Jun Wu is an Assistant Professor in the School of Molecular Sciences and School of Earth and Space Exploration at Arizona State University (ASU). His research focuses on mineralogy, crystallography, and high-pressure geoscience using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). He developed the HPTEM (high-pressure TEM) technique, enabling in-situ analysis of Earth's interior under extreme conditions. Dr. Wu collaborates on the Keck Foundation-funded project exploring Earth’s water origins and investigates nano-material synthesis and deep earthquakes. He holds a Ph.D. in Mineralogy from Johns Hopkins University and postdoctoral training under Prof. Peter Buseck at ASU.
Education: Ph.D., Mineralogy, Johns Hopkins University.
Research Interests: Dr. Wu’s work bridges geoscience and materials science through advanced TEM applications. His HPTEM technique uses carbon nanostructures to simulate Earth’s high-pressure environments, advancing understanding of planetary formation and deep Earth processes. He also explores nanomaterials synthesis and unresolved geological phenomena like deep earthquakes.
Grants: Active funding from the Keck Foundation for origins-of-water research. Collaborative projects integrate experimental and computational approaches in Earth sciences.
Labs/Teams: Engaged in cross-disciplinary teams at ASU’s School of Molecular Sciences and Earth and Space Exploration, leveraging cutting-edge microscopy facilities for high-pressure experiments.
