Chen Gang, 1964, a native of Nanzhang, Hubei Province, is an international leader in heat transfer, an academician of the National Academy of Engineering of Academia Sinica, Taiwan Province Province, an academician of the American Academy of Humanities, and a professor at MIT, department of mechanical engineering.

1980 Chen Gang was admitted to the Power Department of Huazhong University of Science and Technology. 65438-0987, Master of Power Department, Huazhong Institute of Technology, stayed as a lecturer after graduation. 65438-0993 received his Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley, department of mechanical engineering, and then entered the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Materials Science of Duke University as an assistant professor.

200 1 entered department of mechanical engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology as an associate professor; In 2004, he became a professor. In 2009, the formula of blackbody radiation law was broken for the first time. 20 10 was elected as an academician of the national academy of engineering. 20 12 was elected as a member of american physical society. 20 13 was the head of the mechanical engineering department at MIT.

Chen Gang's research involves heat transfer, nanotechnology and energy conversion, mainly including the experiment, theory and numerical calculation of micro-nano scale energy conversion and transfer mechanism.

202 1 On June 4th, local time, official website, the US Department of Justice reported that Chen Gang was prosecuted and arrested for failing to disclose his work and awards in China to the US Department of Energy.

Representative scientific research achievements

In 2009, the team led by Chen Gang published the paper "Energy Transfer between Nano-scales Mediated by Surface Phonon Polaritons" in Nano Express, and it was proved through experiments that the thermal radiation transmittance of close objects could be as high as 1000 times as predicted by the law, which broke the prediction of the law of blackbody radiation founded by German physicist Planck in 1900.

Chen Gang took the lead in studying heat conduction in quantum structures, and his research results promoted the research and development of nano-structured thermoelectric materials. In his publications, he has published articles on heat conduction, thermoelectric transmission theory, performance evaluation of nanostructures and radiant heat.
