报告摘要：
In this talk, I will summarize the recent research on synthesis, characterization and applications of 2D semiconducting nanomaterials in my group [1]. I will introduce the synthesis and characterization of novel 2D semiconducting materials, such as graphene [2], MoS2, WS2, TiS2, TaS2, etc. [3], especially the first-time synthesized hexagonal-close packed (hcp) Au nanostructures on graphene oxide [4]. Then I will demonstrate the applications of the 2D nanomaterials in chemical and bio-sensors [5], solar cells [6], electric devices [7], memory devices [8], conductive electrodes [5b,f, 6, 7a, 8a-b, 9], supercapacitors [10] etc.

Brief CV
Dr. Hua Zhang obtained his B.S. and M.S. degrees at Nanjing University in China in 1992 and 1995, respectively, and completed his Ph.D. with Prof. Zhongfan Liu at Peking University in China in July 1998. He joined Prof. Frans C. De Schryver’s group at Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (KULeuven) in Belgium as a Research Associate in January 1999. Then he moved to Prof. Chad A. Mirkin’s group at Northwestern University as a Postdoctoral Fellow in July 2001. He started to work at NanoInk Inc. (USA) as a Research Scientist/Chemist in August 2003. After that, he worked as a Senior Research Scientist at Institute of Bioengineering and Nanotechnology in Singapore from November 2005 to July 2006. Then he joined the School of Materials Science and Engineering in Nanyang Technological University (NTU) as an Assistant Professor. On March 1, 2011, he was promoted to a tenured Associate Professor. On Feb. 1 2012, he was appointed as the Head of Division (Materials Science).
He has published 3 invited book chapters, 29 patent applications (including 6 granted US patents), and over 190 papers, among which 156 papers were published in the journals with IF>3 (including 76 papers published in IF>7 journals). Some of his papers have been published in Science, Nat. Chem., Nat. Commun., Chem. Soc. Rev., Angew. Chem. Int. Ed., Nano Lett., Adv. Mater., ACS Nano, J. Am. Chem. Soc., Adv. Funct. Mater., Small, etc. Based on Web of Science on 16 June 2012, the total citation of his papers is over 4,100 with H-index of 36. He has been invited to give more than 100 Keynote Lectures or Invited Talks in many international conferences or universities and serve as Session Chair. He has organized several international conferences and served as Symposium Chair. He is an Associate Editor of International Journal of Nanoscience (2007-) and Journal of the Chinese Advanced Materials Society (2012-), sits on the Editorial Board of NANO (2007-), the Advisory Board of Chem. Soc. Rev. (2012-) and Nanoscale (2012-), the Editorial Advisory Board of Small (2012-) and the International Advisory Board of ChemPlusChem (2012-), and is one of the members of the Advisory Committee of IOP Asia-Pacific (2010-).
Dr. Zhang’s research is highly interdisciplinary. His current research interests focus on synthesis of 2D nanomaterials and carbon materials (graphene and CNTs) and their applications in nano- and biosensing, clean energy, etc.; controlled synthesis, characterization and application of novel metallic and semiconducting nanomaterials; scanning probe microscopy; lithography-based fabrication of surface structures from micro- to nanometer scale; self-assembly and self-organization of nano- and biomaterials; self-assembled monolayers; etc.
