Short Biography
Dr. Fan Wenfeng is currently an Associate Researcher at the School of Instrumentation and Optoelectronic Engineering, Beihang University. He began his employment in July 2020 and was appointed to his current position in November 2022. Dr. Fan earned his Bachelor of Engineering in Mechanical Design, Manufacturing, and Automation from Shandong University between 2008 and 2012. He subsequently completed his Ph.D. in Precision Instrument and Machinery at Beihang University (2012–2020). His research focuses on atomic spin inertial measurement technology, low-noise magnetic shielding technology, and optically levitated inertial measurement technology.
He has made significant academic contributions, including presiding over projects such as the National Natural Science Foundation of China Youth Program and a Defense Science and Technology Key Laboratory Fund, in addition to participating in several national-level major research initiatives. In the last 3 years, he has published over 30 SCI-indexed papers, three of which are recognized as ESI Highly Cited Papers. He also holds more than 20 authorized national invention patents.
Dr. Fan actively serves the academic community as a member of the Subcommittee on Cognitive Computing and Systems of the Chinese Association of Automation, an editorial board member of Navigation, Positioning and Timing, and a youth editorial board member of Navigation and Control. He also peer-reviews for several international journals. He has supervised or co-supervised multiple Ph.D. candidates and contributed to teaching and textbook compilation.
Looking forward, Dr. Fan aims to further enhance the precision of quantum inertial instruments, explore novel principles for quantum inertial sensing, and provide new technological pathways for fundamental physics research and high-precision inertial navigation applications.
