Introduction of Lab of Interfacial and Micro Flows
Research interests
- Interfacial phenomena (liquid/solid interaction, superwettability);
- Microscale fluids (microfluidics, droplet dynamics, microscale flows);
- Nanotechnology (nanomaterials, nanostructures, size effect).
Principal Investigator
The PI for laboratory of interfacial and micro flows is TANG Xin. He is an Associate Professor at the Department of Mechanics and Aerospace Engineering. He received the degree of Ph.D. from the University of Hong Kong in 2019. His main academic contributions are as follows: 1. Discovered and delineated the furcated droplet motility on crystalline surfaces (Nature Nanotechnology 2021); 2. Designed lossfree fluid gripper and photopyroelectric microfluidics for precise droplet manipulations (Nature Communications 2017; Science Advances 2020); 3. Studied the enhanced droplet deposition on nonwetting surfaces using thin lubricant overlayer (Nature Communications 2021).
