About the Speaker: Dr. Feng Tian, founder and CEO of Phomera Metamaterials Inc., started his work in the flexible metamaterial in 2015 in Guangdong Zhuhai, in which his team is changing the way people using toxic coloration by enabling healthy and robust structural metamaterial through the combination of nanofabrication and nanoengineering. Phomera's proprietary FlexibleChameleonTM shows customized color transformation at different angles and applied forces on account of internal elasticity and periodicity of materials. These smart metamaterials also respond to environmental change upon contact with water or being heated, exhibiting diversified color variation. Phomera is a world leading start-up company, focusing on fashion and beauty industries, decoration for industrial products and buildings, as well as optical recognition and protection.
Prior to his entrepreneurship in China, he worked as a Michlin Research Fellow at Harvard SEAS. He got his Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of Cambridge as the Duke of Cambridge Scholar in St Edmund’s College and his M.Sc from Fudan University. He also serves as a visiting professor at DPU, post-graduates’ supervisors at DUT, Xiamen University and NPU. He has published 14 articles in Journals including Nature Communications.
