About
Wei Lyu is a leading researcher in the field of optical manipulation, with a focus on the fundamental physics of light–matter interactions and their transformative applications across scientific domains. Their major contributions center on harnessing the momentum of light to achieve precise control over particles, bridging the gap between fluid and solid systems. Lyu’s highly cited 2023 work, “Optical manipulation: from fluid to solid domains” (50 citations), provides a comprehensive framework for understanding how optical tweezers—which utilize light’s momentum—enable advances in biochemistry, robotics, and quantum physics. This research has established Lyu as a key figure in expanding optical manipulation beyond traditional fluid environments into solid-state contexts, opening new avenues for nanoscale engineering and biophysical studies. With a growing citation impact, Lyu’s work continues to inspire interdisciplinary innovation, offering students and researchers a foundational perspective on how light can be wielded as a versatile tool for controlling matter at the smallest scales.
