About

Jiaqi Yuan is a researcher at the forefront of nanophotonics and intelligent robotics, whose work bridges fundamental optics and autonomous systems. Yuan’s most impactful contribution lies in the development of advanced meta-lens technology, particularly the demonstration of a gallium nitride achromatic meta-lens array that enables edge detection from one dimension to three dimensions. This breakthrough, published in 2021 and garnering 59 citations, represents a significant leap in light-field imaging, offering a compact, planar solution for high-contrast image processing that could transform applications in microscopy, machine vision, and augmented reality. In parallel, Yuan explores the intersection of artificial intelligence and robotics, introducing an improved distributional reinforcement learning algorithm (PQR-DQN) for mobile robot path planning in known environments. This work, though recent, underscores Yuan’s versatility in applying computational methods to real-world navigation challenges. With a growing citation record and a portfolio that spans from meta-surface physics to autonomous systems, Jiaqi Yuan is establishing a reputation as an innovator who translates complex optical phenomena into practical, high-impact technologies.
