I will present various aspects of research underway and also published in the past year or so in my research group. I look forward to an invigorating question and answer session during and/or at the end of my presentation! Always a pleasure to present at Xiamen University.
报告人简介:
Short Bio: Rodney S. Ruoff, UNIST Distinguished Professor (The Department of Chemistry, The School of Materials Science, and The School of Energy Science and Chemical Engineering), directs the Center for Multidimensional Carbon Materials (CMCM), an Institute for Basic Science Center (IBS Center) located at the Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST) campus. Prior to joining UNIST in 2014, he was the Cockrell Family Regents Endowed Chair Professor at the University of Texas at Austin from September, 2007. He earned his Ph.D. in Chemical Physics from the University of Illinois-Urbana in 1988, and was a Fulbright Fellow in 1988-89 at the Max Planck Institute für Strömungsforschung in Göttingen, Germany. He was at Northwestern University from January 2000 to August 2007, where he was the John Evans Professor of Nanoengineering and director of NU’s Biologically Inspired Materials Institute. He has authored or co-authored about 500 peer-reviewed publications related to chemistry, physics, materials science, mechanics, and biomedical science. Rod is a Fellow of the Materials Research Society, the American Physical Society, the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and the Royal Society of Chemistry. He is the recipient of the 2014 Turnbull Prize from the MRS, the 2016 SGL Skakel Award from the American Carbon Society, the James C. McGroddy Prize for New Materials from the American Physical Society in 2018, and was named a “2018 (and 2019) Citation Laureate” (Clarivate Analytics). He was awarded the Ubbelholde Memorial Lecture by the Carbon Society of the UK (2019). For further background on some of his research see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodney_S._Ruoff . If of interest, his Google Citation H-index is 153, I-10 Index is 485, 37 publications have been cited more than 1000 times, and 8 more than 5000 times. He has been one of the ‘highly cited researchers’ in Chemistry, Physics, and Materials Science, since such statistics have been reported by Thomson Reuters (and more recently, by Clarivate Analytics).
