104th Session of China Distinguished Materials Scientists Forum——Report by Academician Li Yuliang


In the 104th session sponsored by China Distinguished Materials Scientists Forum, Li Yuliang, Academician of Chinese Academy of Sciences, was invited to give an academic report entitled "two dimensional graphene: review and progress" in the lecture hall of University of Science and Technology Beijing on the afternoon of December 25th. Present at the lecture were Yang Renshu, President of University of Science and Technology Beijing, and nearly 200 teachers and students. The animated academic report was presided over by Professor Xing Xianran, Director of the Institute of Solid Chemistry.

Accompanied by warm applause, Academician Li made a systematic and in-depth report on the discovery, research, application and development trend of two-dimensional graphene. According to Academician Li, the development of graphene and its aggregate structure, especially one-dimensional and two-dimensional graphene based aggregate structure materials and heterostructure materials, is an important direction in the development of materials science. Understanding their correlation with and potential applications in optics, electricity, optoelectronics, energy and catalysis guides the development trend of interdisciplinary sciences based on chemistry. Academician Li, whose team has been committed to graphene studies since the 1990s, showed us the self-assembly and self-organization methodology of graphene based materials based on innovative ideas. In addition, considering the structure and growth law of carbon based materials, as well as scientific problems like structure and energy, his team has succeeded in the controllable preparation of aggregate structure from one dimension to two dimensions. He noted we are proud that Chinese scientists are leading the world's research direction and frontier in grapheme——a new research hotspot and field, which has been of wide concern due to its special electronic and chemical structure.

After the report, the teachers and students present asked questions enthusiastically, including in-depth questions on specific research issues and doubts on macro scientific research methods. He responded to the questions in detail. The teachers and students learned that the challenge ahead for us and the development trend in this field is to explore the basic scientific problems and potential applications of graphene and its aggregate structure in energy, catalysis, optoelectronics and other fields.
