Li found the nanoparticle segregation by accident when printing colloidal inks. The segregation was difficult to get rid of. I suggested that why don’t we use it? Li used the segregation to make so beautiful color patterns.

Our work on one-step, mask-free structural colour patterning via tunable nanoparticle segregation was published on Nature Communications. Big congrats to my PhD student, Li. https://t.co/wAgdGSJHyK

Rui @RuiHuangUTAus and I have just completed a draft of a textbook titled—

Mechanics and Thermodynamics of Polymers

The book is limited to reversible thermodynamic processes of polymer networks. We would value your comments.

It took one month to find reviewers, but no one accepts to review the paper. what is wrong with reviewing system?

[Ming @mxiaocolor]

Our review on “Electrically Triggered Color‐Changing Materials” is published in Advanced Optical Materials. We’re the first to put pigmentary and structural colors together for detailed comparative discussion in the context of electrochromic materials. https://t.co/v9PkrC6dIb

Submitted my first research with me being the only corresponding author since I started my own lab. Finger crossed

[Ming @mxiaocolor]

US trip ended with meeting postdoc advisor Vinny Manoharan and collaborator David Clarke. Benefited a lot again from talk with them. Just arrived at Hongkong and getting my self ready to go back to work!

EL05: Soft optics session is amazing. Glad to meet new and old friends Looking forward to present my talk tomorrow morning. #F23MRS

Lucky to know Lakers plays with Cavs last night. Drove directly to the arena right after landing. Surprised to see Quicken loans is changed to Rocket Mortgage. When I entered the arena after 1 hour of traffic, the third quarter already started. Enjoyed the live game a lot!

Super excited to go back to Akron after almost six years. Looking forward to see old and new friends there.

@arthijayaraman maybe it is the right time to have a break now.
