报告内容：The ultimate or end point of functional materials development is the realization of strong coupling between all energy regimes (optical, electronic, magnetic, and elastic), enabling the same material to be utilized for multifunctionalities. Emerging functional and responsive materials provide solutions to some of the current challenges in our future emerging technology needs, and would potentially lead to high power conversion efficiency system and high energy density materials at low cost. A challenging task in this area is to manufacture nanostructured materials and assemble them into desired structural forms, so that their unique properties can be harvested for renewable energy conversion and multisensing capabilities. In this talk, I will discuss my group’s recent research on the rational design and manufacturing of emerging nanomaterials (both soft and hard matters) combined with the development of “bottom-up” strategies. Specifically, I will focus on two main topics: (a) energy-transduction organic functional materials for energy harvesting and sensing wearable electronics; (b) a novel advanced nanomanufacturing strategy of high energy product metallic nanostructures for energy sustainability. The key aim of this talk is to provide a unique new insight into the emerging materials from energy, sustainability and critical technology to future prospects.
