AWARDS and HONORS

Dr. Aiying Wang gained lots of academic awards and related personal honors with her research, which include the National Science Funds for Distinguished Young Scholars of China,  the Funds of Zhejiang high level talents, and many other awardeds . She has published more than 200 papers, granted over 108 invention patents ( including 8 PCT). She manufactured a series of advanced hybrid PVD deposition systems with high ionization, developed several hard yet tough protective and functional coating materials like amorphous carbon films, MAX phase coatings with high performance, brought forward the new strategy to deposite the coatings with high adhension strenghth on various substrates and large uniformity with complex structures etc.  She is now leading the team memder about 58 people, and focusing on the R&D of advanced protective coatings and functional thin films by PVD/CVD methods for marine applications and related high-technology mechanical components. She is now serving as editor for several journals like Diamond and Related Materials, etc.
