Our research group is dedicated to addressing the extreme thermal management challenges in cutting-edge fields such as hypersonic aircraft, power electronics, and data centers. Our focus areas include high-temperature thermal radiation, high-power heat dissipation, and the development and reliability of novel space energy conversion systems. Our research interests span nanoscale and microscale thermal radiation, thermal management and reliability of power electronics, multi-spectrum stealth technologies, and aero-optics. Since 2018, our group has undertaken numerous major projects, including one from the National Key Research and Development Program, one from the National Defense Science and Technology Innovation Special Zone, a key project in Shandong Province serving JM industries, a sub-project of the Equipment Development Department’s “13th Five-Year Plan” pre-research initiative, three projects from the National Defense Science and Technology Key Laboratory, nine grants from the National Natural Science Foundation of China, six from the Shandong Provincial Natural Science Foundation, and more than 20 industry-commissioned projects. To date, we have published over 100 SCI-indexed academic papers and hold more than 10 patents.
