报告介绍
Abstract：
It is estimated that the world will need to double its energy supply by 2050. With the rapid increase in the global energy consumption, there is a pressing need for clean and renewable energy alternatives. In this talk, I will summarize our work on rational design and development of multi-dimensional conjugated polymers and graphitic carbon nanomaterials for efficient energy conversion and storage, including polymer solar cells containing graphitic carbon nanomaterials for improved charge transport, fuel cells and metal-air batteries with carbon nanomaterials/polymers as metal-free catalysts for oxygen reduction and evolution, and flexible supercapacitors based on CNT-/graphene-based electrodes for energy storage. A brief overview of this exciting field, along with some challenges and opportunities, will also be presented.

Biosketch:
　　Prof. Liming Dai is the Kent Hale Smith Professor in the Department of Macromolecular Science and Engineering at Case Western Reserve University (CWRU). He is also director of the Center of Advanced Science and Engineering for Carbon (CASE4Carbon). Before joining the CWRU, he was an associate professor of polymer engineering at the University of Akron and the Wright Brothers Institute Endowed Chair Professor of Nanomaterials at the University of Dayton. Dr. Dai’s expertise lies across the synthesis, chemical modification and device fabrication of conjugated polymers and carbon nanomaterials for energy-related and biomedical applications. He has published over 350 scientific papers, a research monograph on intelligent macromolecules, an edited book on carbon nanotechnology, a co-edited book on carbon nanomaterials for advanced energy systems, and held about 30 issued/applied patents. His h-index: ~80; Citations: >20,000 (Source: ISI Web of Sciences; Author query: “Dai LM” and “Dai L)
