About

Panpan Liu is a leading researcher in the field of flexible and stretchable electronics, with a particular focus on laser-induced graphene (LIG) technologies. Their major contributions center on developing novel fabrication methods that overcome the mechanical limitations of traditional rigid substrates, enabling high-performance, stretchable devices. In their highly cited 2022 work (173 citations), Liu introduced a soft, stretchable electronic platform using LIG on a polyimide/PDMS composite substrate, demonstrating how to achieve both robustness and flexibility—a critical advance for wearable sensors and soft robotics. Expanding on this, Liu’s 2022 paper on stretchable sensors and electro-thermal actuators (47 citations) showcased the dual functionality of LIG for both sensing and self-sensing actuation, paving the way for intelligent, adaptive soft systems. More recently, Liu explored magnetically tightened multifunctional phase change materials, hinting at applications in thermal management and responsive materials. With a growing citation impact and a clear trajectory toward practical, scalable flexible electronics, Liu’s work is shaping the future of wearable technology and soft robotics.
