About
Lixiang Chen is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of nanorobotics and analytical chemistry, whose work focuses on developing intelligent micromotors for advanced sensing applications. Chen’s major contribution lies in engineering “hotspots on the fly”—mobile micromotors that integrate controlled motion with surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) capabilities. Their most-cited paper, “Magnetic Micromotors with Spiky Gold Nanoshells as SERS Sensors for Thiram and Bacteria Detection” (2024, 24 citations), demonstrates a breakthrough approach to real-time, ultra-sensitive detection of pesticides and pathogens. By designing spiky gold nanoshells on magnetic micromotors, Chen achieved both high mobility and exceptional SERS sensitivity, enabling rapid, on-the-move analysis of environmental and biological threats. This work has significant implications for food safety, environmental monitoring, and biomedical diagnostics, offering a versatile platform that overcomes the static limitations of traditional SERS sensors. Chen’s innovative fusion of micromotor propulsion with plasmonic sensing represents a notable achievement in the field, positioning their research as a key driver of next-generation, mobile sensing technologies.
