About

Guijun Li is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of bioinspired robotics, advanced manufacturing, and functional materials. His work is defined by a remarkable ability to translate biological principles into practical engineering solutions, most notably through the development of an ultrawide field-of-view pinhole compound eye using hemispherical nanowire arrays, which has already garnered 72 citations for its potential in robot vision. Li’s major contributions extend to combating global health threats, where his additive manufactured graphene coating—combining photothermal and superhydrophobic effects for bactericidal applications (37 citations)—offers a novel weapon against drug-resistant bacteria. He has also advanced environmental sustainability with an all-3D-printed superhydrophobic membrane for robotic oil recycling (34 citations), demonstrating a commitment to practical, scalable solutions. His innovative use of laser-induced graphene for portable tomography imaging in murky water and laser-guided self-assembly of micro-rolls for small-scale swimmers showcases his versatility in creating next-generation devices. Li’s work, spanning from photochemical copper coatings to self-rolling thin films, consistently pushes the boundaries of what is possible with 3D printing and laser processing, establishing him as a leading figure in functional surface engineering and bioinspired robotics.
