About
Laipan Zhu is a leading figure in the field of piezotronics and nanoenergy, with a particular focus on two-dimensional (2D) materials and their electromechanical coupling properties. His most-cited work, "2D piezotronics in atomically thin zinc oxide sheets: Interfacing gating and channel width gating" (2019, 74 citations), introduces a groundbreaking mechanism for controlling electronic transport in atomically thin ZnO sheets through mechanical strain. This research demonstrates both interfacial gating and channel width gating effects, offering a new paradigm for designing highly sensitive, flexible nanodevices. Zhu’s contributions have significantly advanced the understanding of how piezoelectric polarization can modulate charge carrier behavior at the nanoscale, with direct implications for next-generation sensors, energy harvesters, and adaptive electronics. His work is widely recognized for bridging fundamental physics with practical device engineering, and his high-impact publications continue to shape the rapidly evolving landscape of piezotronics and 2D material-based technologies.
