This area explores advanced materials for efficient heat conduction, thermal insulation, and flame retardancy, with particular attention to multiscale structural optimization and applications in new energy vehicles, aerospace systems, and energy storage devices.
Research in this area is devoted to the development of functional materials and devices with intelligent response characteristics, including thermal switching materials, electromagnetic absorption materials, and shielding materials, with broad applications in information technology, energy storage, and energy conversion.
The group is distinguished by an integrated research approach that combines theoretical analysis, computational modeling, experimental validation, and engineering application. Strong emphasis is placed on interdisciplinary collaboration, with systematic efforts spanning microstructural design, property optimization, and device integration.
By establishing a complete research chain from materials design to application-oriented validation, the group is committed to advancing the practical deployment of high-performance materials in electronic information technologies, advanced manufacturing, new energy systems, and high-end equipment.
The laboratory is equipped with extensive resources for both bulk-scale and micro/nanoscale materials fabrication and characterization. Major instruments include a Raman spectrometer, frequency-domain thermoreflectance thermal conductivity measurement system, 1D/2D material transfer platform, thermal conductivity analyzer, interfacial thermal resistance and thermal conductivity measurement system, snap-action/twist-action cooling system, machine learning workstation, stereolithography 3D printer, fused deposition modeling 3D printer, hot press, vulcanizing press, ultrasonic crusher, planetary ball mill, atomic force microscope, and reactive ion etching system.
In addition, the analytical and testing center provides access to electron microscopy facilities, physicochemical measurement and characterization platforms, as well as cleanroom and micro/nanofabrication platforms. Available services include high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM), high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM), benchtop X-ray absorption fine structure/emission spectroscopy (XAFS/XES), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS).
