About

Dr. Pinzhen Chen is a leading researcher at the frontier of flexible electronics, intelligent sensing, and advanced functional materials. Their work is distinguished by pioneering contributions to triboelectric sensors, soft robotics, and human–machine interaction systems. Dr. Chen’s most impactful paper, “A comprehensive review on triboelectric sensors and AI-integrated systems” (2024, 78 citations), has become a key reference in the field, synthesizing the convergence of energy harvesting and artificial intelligence. They have also made landmark advances in flexible mechano-optical dual-responsive perovskite molecular ferroelectric composites for anticounterfeiting and encryption (27 citations), overcoming the brittleness that has long limited practical applications of molecular ferroelectrics. In bio-inspired robotics, Dr. Chen developed Venus Flytrap-inspired data-center-free soft robots using 2D Ni₃(HITP)₂ MOF and graphite (24 citations), enabling rapid, autonomous responses without external computational support. Their innovations in multidimensional force sensors (15 citations) are advancing tactile perception and embodied intelligence, while their highly-sensitive expandable microsphere-based pressure sensor (12 citations) demonstrates practical utility in human–machine interaction. Through these achievements, Dr. Chen is shaping the next generation of intelligent, flexible, and autonomous systems.
