About
Yuwen Qin is a rising leader in advanced fiber-optic sensing and MXene-based multifunctional devices. Her research centers on two transformative areas: distributed Brillouin curvature sensing using specially designed few-mode fibers, and next-generation MXene sensors that integrate optical and electrical signals for biological, chemical, and physical detection. Qin’s major contributions include developing bending-loss-resistant distributed sensors using erbium-doped few-mode fibers, enabling curvature measurements in tight radii (~0.3 to 2.02 cm) with unprecedented accuracy. She also pioneered ring-core and triple-ring-core fiber designs that dramatically expand curvature measurement range and enable shape reconstruction via Frenet-Serret algorithms. Her most cited work, an MXene sensor review (87 citations), maps the path from conventional sensing to intelligent and bionic devices. With a portfolio of papers accumulating over 130 citations, Qin is shaping the future of distributed sensing for structural health monitoring and soft robotics. Her innovations in fiber design and signal processing are laying the groundwork for high-precision, large-range curvature sensors that could revolutionize shape-sensing technologies.
