About

Pengzhan Liu is a rising force in the field of acoustofluidics and ultrasonic manipulation, whose work is redefining the precision and power of contactless particle control. His research centers on the design of acoustic black hole profiles—a novel approach that concentrates acoustic energy to create high-performance ultrasonic tweezers. Liu’s major contribution lies in demonstrating how these engineered structures can trap and maneuver microparticles with unprecedented efficiency, offering a transformative tool for biomedical applications such as cell sorting and drug delivery. His most-cited paper, "Acoustic black hole profiles for high-performance ultrasonic tweezers" (2022), has already garnered 32 citations, signaling its rapid impact on the community. This work stands out for its elegant fusion of wave physics and practical device design, earning recognition for its potential to miniaturize and enhance lab-on-a-chip systems. As an emerging scholar, Liu’s innovative use of acoustic metamaterials marks him as a key contributor to next-generation non-invasive manipulation technologies.
