报告摘要：
I will show you two recent works from my lab. I will first demonstrate the generation of a liquid jet by simply focusing a pulsed laser into water through a glass window.  This is a new optofluidics principle that combines photoacoustics with acoustic streaming. Due to small momentum of photons and many other reasons, the transportation or manipulation of matter with lasers has been a great challenge. The key to our laser streaming is a special photoacoustic transducer that can convert a single laser pulse to a multi-cycle ultrasound oscillation, a train of laser pulses can then generate a quasi-continuous ultrasound wave which produces a steady flow as in classical acoustic streaming. In the second part, I will talk about some important but controversial issues in low dimensional Perovskites. Specifically, I will discuss about edge states in Ruddlesden-Popper organic-inorganic perovskites, controversial bandgaps of two-dimensional CsPb2Br5 and zero-dimensional Cs4PbBr6. I will share with you our preliminary results and understandings of these materials.
