曹墨源博士以“仿生不对称界面与流体间作用的调控”为切入点，探索具有低耗高效、智能可控、易于整合的新型流体操控界面材料，并将其引入淡水收集、电解水产氢、水下气体操控、柔性电子学等实际应用中，优化流体与界面材料间的相互作用，提高器件效率、降低能量消耗、推进过程连续性，最终形成仿生学与材料工程以及能源化学等方向的新交叉点。
基于相关研究，已在Matter, Adv. Mater., Mater. Horiz., ACS Nano, Adv. Funct. Mater.等杂志上发表80余篇高水平SCI论文，被引5600余次，H因子39。授权国家发明专利7项。相关研究工作曾获得Materials Horizons 杂志首届Outstanding Paper Runner-up 奖，研究成果曾多次被New Scientist, Physics Org., Advanced Science News，材料人等媒体亮点报道。
主要研究方向：
(1)仿生流控界面的高效构建、可靠评价及功能探索；
(2)基于自发、连续、定向流体输运的功能器件构筑；
(3)界面化学微反应器的构建与评价。
学术成果简述：
(1)证实以流体表面能为唯一推动力的自发流体输运过程，实现了不同流体（水、气、油等）在具有组合浸润性的界面上单向输运。(2)证实不对称刺状结构对于液体的定向推动/阻碍能力，实现了在3维、2维开放平面上的液体定向可控输运。(3)首次证实仿猪笼草内壁超润滑界面对水下气泡的操控能力，并进一步实现水下气体的自发定向输运过程并证实其应用潜力。
