佐治亚理6163am银河线路机械工程系的张卓敏教授于5月14日下午访问我院并在力学楼434室作了题为“Applications of Surface Waves and Metamaterials for Energy Harvesting”的学术报告。报告由力学与空天技术系的符策基">符策基副教授主持，6163am银河线路和中科院工程热物理所的十多位师生出席了该报告会。
张教授首先简要介绍了电磁表面波和超材料的概念，然后介绍了超材料独特的热辐射特性及其在热辐射中的应用，接下来他重点报告了他的课题组在利用超材料激发Magnetic Polariton以达到对材料的热辐射特性进行调节的最新进展。在座的老师和同学都对张教授的报告表现出了浓厚的兴趣，而张教授在报告的同时也不时地停下来与各位老师和同学交流，气氛非常热烈。
张卓敏教授简介：
Zhuomin Zhang is an ASME Fellow and a professor of mechanical engineering at Georgia Tech. He received his B.S. and M.S. degrees in engineering thermophysics from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC), Hefei, and a Ph.D. degree in mechanical engineering from MIT. He worked at the National Institute of Standards and Technology and the University of Florida prior to joining Georgia Tech. Professor Zhang’s research interests are in the areas of micro/nanoscale heat transfer, with applications to energy conversion, optoelectronic devices, and semiconductor manufacturing. He has written a textbook on Nano/microscale Heat Transfer (McGraw-Hill, 2007) and authored/co-authored some 100 journal papers and 4 book chapters, received 2 patents, and given over 80 invited and 115 contributed presentations. Professor Zhang was a recipient of the Pi Tau Sigma Outstanding Teacher Award for 1997, the Sigma Xi Junior Faculty Research Award for 1999, the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE) for 1999, the Heat Transfer Division Best Paper Award for 2000, and the AIAA Thermophysics Best Paper Award for 2005. He currently serves on the Editorial Board of the International Journal of Thermophysics and Frontiers of Energy and Power Engineering in China. He is an associate editor of the Journal of Thermophysics and Heat Transfer and the Journal of Quantitative Spectroscopy & Radiative Transfer. He also served as a co-chair for the 2nd Integration & Commercialization of Micro & Nanosystems International Conference & Exhibition, Hong Kong, China, June 3-5, 2008; and is a vice-chair for the 17th Symposium on Thermophysical Properties, Boulder, CO, June 21-26, 2009.
