About
Liguo Dai is a pioneering researcher in the field of microrobotics, with a primary focus on bubble-driven and biohybrid micro-manipulation systems. His work centers on developing innovative methods for the precise assembly, transport, and actuation of microscale components, addressing critical challenges in micro-manufacturing and lab-on-a-chip technologies. Dai’s major contributions include the creation of superhydrophobic photothermal graphene composites for swimming microrobots at air/water interfaces, a highly cited work (76 citations) that demonstrates advanced locomotion capabilities. He also introduced integrated multifunctional bubble microrobots for flexible micropart assembly (54 citations), enabling the direct formation of robust micro-entities—a significant leap beyond traditional loose patterning techniques. More recently, Dai has pioneered three-dimensional manipulation using twin optothermally actuated bubble robots and explored the use of algal cells as bio-actuators for transporting and rotating microstructures. His research, recognized for its novelty and impact, is shaping the future of autonomous microsystems and soft robotics.
