Dr. Lunyong Zhang, is currently an associate professor of Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT, China) with general research interests in the field of atomic scale growth and properties modulation of quantum materials, solidification physics and intelligent solidification formation of advanced alloys. Dr. Zhang received his PhD, MS and BS from HIT. Before joining HIT in May 2020, he was an associated researcher at the MaxPlanck-POSTECH center for complex phase materials of Pohang University of Science and Technology, Korea and a visit scientist of the MaxPlanck Institute for Chemical Physics of Solids, Germany. He has reported a series of emergent results about the iridates and other novel compounds, for example the first electronic transport evidence of the semimetal state of SrIrO3 and the strong temperature sensitivity of spin-orbit interaction in iridates, the topological magnetoresistance of chiral spin texture like skyrmionics bubbles. He also revealed the nature of multiple scale bifilm defects in the advanced complex castings of magnesium, aluminum, copper and other alloys, discovered the nonequilibrium reaction feature of such kind of emergent casting defects, developed the precise counter-gravity casting technology for aerospace and aeronautical large and complex components with pressure nonlinear modulation and solidification temperature field point by point controlling. Dr. Zhang is a Fellow of International Association of Advanced Materials (IAAM), was rewarded the IAAM Scientist award (2023) and the advanced materials award (2024) . He has contributed 100+ publications on journals including Physical Review Letters, Nature Communications, Applied Physics Reviews，Advance Functional Materials, Nano Letters, Chem Caterlysis，Critical Reviews in Solid State and Materials Sciences、Journal of magnesium and alloys, Scripta materialia and is an expert reviewer of Italian Ministry of education, universities and Research (MIUR) and invited referee of journals such as Applied Physics Reviews, Advanced Functional Materials, etc. He also is a young editor of the international journal “The Innovation” and “Advanced Powder Materials”，‘Progress in Natural Science: Materials International’, ‘China Foundray’ and guest editor of journals “symmetry” ,“Frontier in Materials” , “ Discover Applied Sciences” and ‘Materials ’.
