Alumni of the junior class of the University of science and technology of China , Send two articles a day Nature.

Duan Xiangfeng , World's top nano scientists ,15 I entered the junior class of CUHK at the age of , Now is UCLA professor , Won the belby medal （ The third Chinese winner in history , The last one is Professor baozhenan ） .

this , Published as the only corresponding author and the cooperative corresponding author respectively .

Let's see what they said ？

Two articles in succession Nature

According to introducing , At present, Professor Duan Xiangfeng's main research direction is inorganic nanostructures .

Specifically, it includes advanced functional nano materials 、 Van der Waals heterojunction devices 、 Energy storage 、 Heterogeneous integration of nano scale materials .

Chapter one Nature, The preparation method of a new chiral molecular intercalation superlattice material is introduced .

Van der Waals heterojunction , As a hot direction in the field of nano materials , By playing LEGO , Stack different two-dimensional materials to form materials with different functions , The future lies in integrated circuits 、 Photodetectors and other applications play an important role .

This time, the chiral molecular layer is inserted into the gap of van der Waals material , Form superlattice materials , The highly ordered superlattice structure and chiral optical selection properties are realized .

Second articles Nature, The heat insulation materials under extreme conditions were designed and synthesized in collaboration with the team of Harbin Institute of Technology —— Ceramic aerogel .

The coefficient of thermal expansion is close to 0, That is, when the temperature rises , There is little change in geometric properties . Poisson's ratio is also close to 0.

（ Poisson's ratio , When the material is under uniaxial tension or compression , The ratio of the absolute value of the transverse normal strain to the axial normal strain ）

It is worth mentioning that , Professor Duan Xiangfeng has long been Nature、Science A regular visitor .

Someone counted , Not including cooperation , since 2018 From the year onwards , Already in Science/Nature The journal has been published recently 14 piece .

Before that 2020 Annual report , end 2020 year , He has published academic papers 180 Yu Wen , These include Science、Nature And Nature Sub issue 20 Multiple articles ,Google Scholar Show ,2017 Since, the number of citations has reached 4.4 Ten thousand times .

15 I entered the junior class of the University of science and technology at the age of

According to the news website of University of science and technology of China , Duan Xiangfeng was born in Wugang, Hunan ,1992 He was admitted to the junior class of the University of science and technology of China from Hunan Wugang No. 2 middle school , On 1997 Obtained a bachelor's degree from the Department of Applied Chemistry , And won Guo Moruo SCHOLARSHIP .

And then , He went to Harvard to study for a master's degree .

During my study , He and the alumni of the University of science and Technology , At the same time, the nano achievements of his wife Huang Yu's cooperation were Science named 2001 Annual top ten scientific and technological breakthroughs in the world .

2002 year , He once worked in technology enterprises Nanosys As a founding scientist .6 Years later, （2008 year ） Return to academia , As a UCLA assistant professor .

2013 year , Because he has made outstanding contributions to graphene and photocatalysis in the field of nanoscience , Duan Xiangfeng won the belby medal .

Belby medal , On 1930 Established in , By British material 、 Minerals 、 Mining Association （Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining）、 Royal Chemical Society 、 Chemical industry society （SCI） Take turns managing .

It is awarded annually to students in Chemical Engineering 、 Applied materials 、 Scientists or engineers who have made outstanding contributions to energy efficiency or related fields , Give priority to candidates early in their career .

The medal is rarely awarded to Chinese scientists , Before him, only two scholars obtained . They are professor guozhengxiao of University College London , Bao Zhenan, Professor of Chemical Engineering Department of Stanford University .

Every time I see such new achievements , Students will comment at the bottom from time to time ：

What kind of ability can you enter the Group ？
