Prof. Lujun Pan
Dalian University of Technology, China
Biography:
In 1988, Professor Pan graduated with a bachelor's degree in Electrical Insulation Technology from the School of Electrical Engineering at Xi'an Jiaotong University. In 1994, he went to Osaka Prefecture University in Japan to study Electronic Physics. Professor Pan obtained his Ph.D. in 2000 and remained at the university as an assistant professor, during which he also served as a researcher at the Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST) and the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO). At the end of 2007, he returned to China and was appointed as a professor and doctoral advisor at Dalian University of Technology. He has held various positions, including Director of the School of Physics and Optoelectronic Engineering, Director of the Physics and Optoelectronic Experimental Center, and head of the Optics program.
Professor Pan’s primary research areas include the preparation and study of the physical properties of nanomaterials. He has published more than 190 papers in prominent international SCI journals, which have been cited over 4,000 times. He has filed and obtained over 20 national and international patents. He has consistently focused on the structural regulation of carbon nanomaterials and their composites, as well as their optoelectronic and mechanical properties, acquiring essential technologies and extensive practical experience in the preparation of carbon nanomaterials. During his tenure in Japan, he undertook multiple key projects funded by JST and NEDO, and as a project leader, he spearheaded a significant collaborative research initiative titled "Regional Collaborative Research Project- Creation of Utilization Technologies for Carbon Nanomaterials", jointly organized by JST and Osaka Prefecture.
After returning to China, Professor Pan has led and participated in various projects funded by the National Natural Science Foundation, including general and key projects, the 863 Program, and significant international cooperative projects. He has made several internationally leading research achievements in the hierarchical structure construction of carbon nanomaterials, photothermal-electric properties, and the fundamental applications in energy storage, microwave absorption, flexible sensing, and Raman spectra. The graduate students he has supervised have published numerous high-level papers in prestigious international nanotechnology journals and have received various honors, including National Scholarships, the Doctoral Star Award, and Outstanding Graduate Students at the provincial level.
