About

Haibo Ke is a leading figure in the field of metallic glasses, with a research focus that bridges biomimetic design, advanced manufacturing, and fundamental materials science. His most notable contribution is the creation of the "Metallic *Mimosa pudica*"—a groundbreaking three-dimensional biomimetic buckling structure made from metallic glass. Inspired by the sensitive plant, this structure can bloom, close, and reverse its shape under a magnetic field or manual reshaping, achieved through precise laser patterning of crystallized lines. This work, which has garnered 19 citations, showcases Ke's ability to merge nature-inspired engineering with the unique properties of metallic glasses. Additionally, Ke co-authored the "Metallic glass roadmap" (2025, 13 citations), a comprehensive guide that outlines the past, present, and future of this fascinating class of materials—combining the fluidity of liquids, the rigidity of solids, and the conductivity of metals. Through these achievements, Ke has positioned himself as a key innovator, demonstrating how metallic glasses can be transformed into dynamic, responsive structures, opening new avenues for smart materials and adaptive technologies.
