Lai Tao completed his PhD at the National University of Defense Technology in 2021. Following his doctorate, he became an associate professor at the same institution. In his role, he specializes in the development of informatization and intelligent equipment, focusing on areas such as precision strike, observation, and early warning systems. His research is centered on ultraprecision measurement technology, particularly for nano-precision shape-control and performance control manufacturing of optically complex surfaces. He has made significant contributions to this field, including the innovation of a new method for nano-precision profile measurement of optical elements, the development of a high-precision guideway with 20nm straightness, and the creation of a Cartesian coordinate nano-precision complex surface profile measurement machine. His work supports the nano-precision manufacturing of aluminum mirrors with complex curved surfaces and is instrumental in measuring high-precision shape and position errors in components like strong light optics and X-ray mandrels. Over the past five years, he has published 16 SCI papers, with 11 being high-quality publications, and has been an active participant in international academic conferences, such as ATAMI 2022 and SMSE 2022.
