Tao Wei obtained his PhD in 2015 from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC). During 2016-2021 he worked as an Alexander von Humboldt postdoctoral fellow under Prof. Andreas Hirsch at the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, Germany. From 2021 to Feb. 2024 he has been conducting independent research as a Habilitation. Since Mar. 2024, he has been serving as a Junior group leader in the same department. His research interest lies in the synthesis, chemistry, and properties of synthetic carbon allotropes (e.g., fullerene, carbon nanotube, and graphene) and hybrids.
