报告摘要:Metal nanoparticles have many applications, such as catalyst in fuel cell electrodes. Our group has recently developed new approaches in the preparation of nanocrystal size, facet, composition and various fine metal structures (e.g., site specific bimetallics). In this presentation, principles of solution phase design and post-synthesis treatment of metal nanostructures will be discussed. I will focus on a) in situ liquid transmission electron microscopy (LTEM) in the understanding of nucleation and growth of heterogeneous metal nanoparticles; b) in-situ variable temperature environmental TEM (ETEM) study of structural behaviors of bimetallic nanoparticles under reactive conditions and c) structure-catalytic property relationship.
 
 
个人简历Prof. Hong Yangis the Richard C. Alkire Professor of Chemical Engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) and an elected Fellow of American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). He received his B.Sc. degree from Tsinghua University (1989), M.Sc. degree from University of Victoria (1994), and Ph.D. degree from University of Toronto (1998). After working at Harvard University as an NSERC postdoctoral fellow, he started his independent research and rose through the academic ranks at University of Rochester before joining the faculty of UIUC in 2012.
Dr. Yang received a NSERC Canada Doctoral Prize for his thesis work, and won a US National Science Foundation CAREER Award. He is a Section Editor for Current Opinion in Chemical Engineering (Elsevier), served as a Guest Editor for Advanced Materials, Accounts of Chemical Research and ChemSusChem, and currently serves on the Editorial Boards of Nano Today (Elsevier), ChemNanoMat (VCH), Science China Materials (CAS-Springer), Frontier in Energy (CAE-Springer) and a few of other journals. He is an expert reviewer for many funding agencies, including Chinese State Science Award and Changjiang Professorship programs. His research interests include understanding the formation of nanocrystals, catalysis and electrocatalysis, nanomaterials for energy and biological applications.
