About

Hongzhao Fan is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of biomimetic materials, nanofluidics, and sustainable energy systems. His work focuses on designing advanced membranes that mimic biological ion transport, with major contributions to osmotic energy conversion and iontronic logic control. Fan’s most-cited paper, "Biomimetic Janus MXene membrane with bidirectional ion permselectivity for enhanced osmotic effects and iontronic logic control" (2025, 17 citations), introduces a groundbreaking Janus membrane that overcomes the traditional limitation of unidirectional ion transport. By enabling bidirectional permselectivity, this innovation significantly enhances osmotic efficiency—a critical factor for both biological signal transmission and sustainable energy harvesting. The work demonstrates how engineered membranes can achieve the delicate balance between ion selectivity and permeability, offering new pathways for blue energy generation and neuromorphic computing. Fan’s research has rapidly gained attention for its potential to revolutionize membrane technology, bridging fundamental nanofluidic principles with practical applications in renewable energy and bioinspired electronics. His achievements mark him as an emerging leader in the field of smart membranes and iontronic systems.
