About

Jiming Bao is a pioneering researcher whose work lies at the dynamic intersection of photonics, materials science, and energy conversion. His key research areas include nanophotonics, plasmonics, and the manipulation of fluids and heat using light. Bao’s major contributions center on innovative light-driven phenomena, such as the development of a liquid wheel driven by thermomagnetic convection—a concept that reimagines traditional solid-state engines by using ferrofluids and laser heating to convert thermal energy directly into mechanical motion. This work, though recent, has already garnered attention for its potential in microfluidics and energy harvesting. With a citation record spanning hundreds of publications, Bao’s impact is evident in his widely cited studies on graphene, plasmonic nanostructures, and solar energy conversion. Notably, his research on "spinning a liquid wheel" exemplifies his talent for merging fundamental physics with practical, visually striking demonstrations. For students and researchers, Bao’s work offers a compelling glimpse into how light can be harnessed to control matter at micro- and nanoscales, opening new avenues for sustainable technologies and advanced material systems.
