报告人简介：
Dr. David Lou received his B.Eng. (1st class honors) (2002) and M.Eng. (2004) degrees from the National University of Singapore. He obtained his Ph.D. degree in chemical engineering from Cornell University in 2008. Right after graduation, he joined Nanyang Technological University (NTU) as an Assistant Professor. He was promoted to Associate Professor since September 2013, and to Full Professor since September 2015. He has published about 248 papers with a total citation of >33,600 (ISI) or >39,600 (Google scholar), and an h-index of 109 (ISI) and 117 (Google scholar). His main research interest is on designed synthesis of nanostructured materials for energy and environmental applications. In particular, he has strong interest on synthesis of hollow nanostructures for different applications, such as lithium-ion batteries and supercapacitors. He also explores the applications of novel nanostructured materials for electrocatalysis and photocatalysis. He has received several important awards including the Young Scientist Award 2012 by National Academy of Science of Singapore. He also received the Nanyang Research Award 2012 by Nanyang Technological University. He was listed as a Highly Cited Researcher by Thomson Reuters in 2014 (in Materials Science), 2015 (in both Materials Science & Chemistry) and 2016 (in Materials Science, Chemistry, & Environment). He is currently an Associate Editor for Journal of Materials Chemistry A and Science Advances.
报告内容：
Dr. David Lou uses metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as a unique platform to synthesize nanostructured functional materials with both controlled composition and structure. Due to the atomically arranged metal ions and organic ligands, as well as the wide variety of compositions and porous structures, MOFs can serve as unique precursors for easy preparation of metal-based materials, carbonaceous materials and nanocomposites with high porosity and tunable composition/structure. In this talk, Dr. David Lou will briefly discusses some progress he has made in this area. Specifically, Dr. David Lou will mentions some examples of designed synthesis of nanostructured metal oxides, sulfides, nitrides, and carbides using MOF precursors. These MOF-derived nanomaterials exhibit interesting electrochemical properties.
