About Our Lab

Welcome to the Laser-Aided Materials, Manufacturing, and Processing (LAMĀ²P) Laboratory at the University of South Florida. Our research is at the forefront of advancing materials science through innovative laser-based techniques. We specialize in the advanced manufacturing of metals, metal alloys, semiconductor materials, catalysts, and metamaterials, focusing on the development of multifunctional coatings. Our research includes creating self-healing and corrosion-resistant multifunctional coatings through precision laser texturing, as well as exploring novel methods for acoustic camouflage. We employ solid-state processing and additive manufacturing to address complex challenges in material fabrication. Our work contributes to reducing carbon emissions and enhancing energy efficiency across various applications, including energy harvesting, aerospace, vehicle technology, and sensing technologies. By combining multiple functionalities into single components, we push the boundaries of material processing and aim to provide high-throughput, cost-effective, and efficient solutions for advanced multifunctional materials. Our goal is to drive innovation and create impactful solutions that address both scientific and practical needs in the field of Mechanical and Materials engineering.
