摘要:
Three-dimensional
(3-D) integration of nanostructures or nanostructure arrays into applicable
platforms or devices represents the need for meeting ever-increasing demands of
human beings for cost-effectiveness, structure sophistication, multi-function
enabling, while simplified and efficient practical operations. Such an
integration process generally involves a diverse array of nanostructured
entities that include various dissimilar nanoscale building blocks such as
nanoparticles, nanowires, and nanofilms made of metals, ceramics, or polymers
in the nanoscale form. In this talk, I will highlight our latest research
progress on the 2-D and 3-D metal oxide based nanostructure integrations toward
applicable ultrahigh efficiency, robustness, and improved functionality, with
an intention to draw a unique roadmap toward practically and better bridging
the gap between nanoscience and nanotechnology in energy and environmental
applications. Specifically, examples through design in scalable
nanomanufacturing and catalytic vehicle aftertreatment will be used as the
connecting dots to display the nanomaterials roadmap linking from scalable 2-D
toward 3-D integration.
报告人简介:
Dr.
Pu-Xian Gao obtained his Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering from the
Georgia Institute of Technology in 2005. He currently is an Associate Professor
of Materials Science and Engineering, and Physics (courtesy) at the University
of Connecticut. He is the founding director of Nanomaterials Science Laboratory
(NSL) in the Institute of Materials Science at the University of Connecticut
since 2007. NSL‘s mission mainly focuses on bridging nanomaterials
science and engineering with practical applications in energy and environmental
catalysis, sensors and related electronics, fire security and energy sources,
and bioenvironment-nanomaterials interfaces. Dr. Gao has authored and
co-authored more than 70 journal articles with over 4000 citations, 4 book
chapters, 12 patents and invention disclosures, and a few conference
proceedings, and delivered more than 100 invited and contributed professional
presentations and seminars. Dr. Gao has received several awards including Honda
Initiation Grant Award, ACS-PRF New Faculty Grant Award, and the Humboldt
Research Fellowship. Dr. Gao is affiliated with professional societies such as
ACerS, ACS, MRS, and RSC.
