Research Interests

Dr.Guan’s research interest focus on the quantum interaction and ultrafast dynamics in condensed matters and developing Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory (TDDFT) methods. Current interests include:

1)Laser driven structural engineering;

2)High harmonic generation (HHG) in solids;

3)Strong-field driven photoemission;

4)Nuclear quantum effect in energetic materials.

Publications

Based on the TDDFT and related calculation methods, she has studied the microscopic mechanisms and modulation strategies of various ultrafast dynamic processes. She has won the "ICAM- China Emerging Scientist Award" and the "Excellence Award of Chinese Academy of Sciences Dean Scholarship”. So far, she has published 28 SCI papers, some selected publication include(+Co-first author,*Co-corresponding author):
