Dr. Jianwei Tang is currently a full Professor and Ph.D. supervisor in the School of Physics at Huazhong University of Science and Technology, China. His research interests include micro-nano photonics and quantum optics. In recent years, his research has focused on "micro-nano optical control of solid-state quantum systems". He has developed micro-nano manipulation techniques to hybrid integrate solid-state quantum systems such as single molecules, single quantum dots, and rare-earth nanocrystals with plasmonic cavities, on-chip waveguides, and photonic crystal microcavities. This integration enables the realization of high-brightness, high-stability, and high-controllability quantum light sources, which can be applied in optical quantum information processing and sensing imaging. He has published as first or corresponding author in internationally renowned journals such as Nature Nanotechnology (2025), Nature Photonics (2023), eLight (2026), Nature Communications (2018, 2022), Light: Science & Applications (2020), Nano Letters (2024), Laser & Photonics Reviews (2025), etc. He serves as the Principal Investigator (PI) for multiple research projects, including the General Program and Youth Program of the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC), and the Youth Category A Project of Hubei Provincial Natural Science Foundation. His honors include: Nomination Award for China's Top 10 Optical Breakthroughs, Hubei Provincial Talent Program, Huazhong Distinguished Young Scholar (from Huazhong University of Science and Technology), and PIERS Young Scientist Award (from the Electromagnetics Academy). He currently serves as a Young Editorial Board Member of PhotoniX. He has delivered over 20 invited talks at domestic and international academic conferences.
