SUMMARY:UDL#19: Explore the World of Nanomaterials with Prof. Ajayan – A Pioneer of Nanotechnology
DESCRIPTION:The 19th edition of the University Distinguished Lecture is scheduled to be held on January 07\, 2025. The distinguished lecture will be delivered by the esteemed academician and renowned researcher in the field of nanotechnology\, Prof. Pulickel M. Ajayan\, Benjamin M. and Mary Greenwood Anderson Professor of Engineering at Rice University\, Texas\, USA on the topic “Nano-Engineered Materials”. \nAbstract \nThe last two decades in materials science have been dominated by spectacular discoveries in nanotechnology. This talk will focus on some of these developments\, particularly in relation to the challenges in designing and controllably synthesizing functional nano-engineered materials. The lecture will elaborate on several classes of materials\, for example\, carbon-based and boron-nitrogen-carbon-based materials\, two-dimensional materials such as transition metal di-chalcogenides and their hybrids\, defect-engineered materials and single-atom catalysts\, and interface-controlled nanocomposites. We will also consider the impact of bottom-up engineering on the design of material systems relevant to many areas of applications. Several aspects\, including synthesis\, chemical manipulation and hybridization\, will be discussed to address the opportunities that are available in creating novel nanoengineered materials. \nAbout the Speaker \nProf. Pulickel M Ajayan has worked in nanotechnology for nearly three decades. He has published more than 1300 journal papers\, earning more than 225\,000 citations and an h-index of 230 (by Google Scholar). His work covers diverse areas of nanomaterials including nanoparticles\, nanotubes\, diamond\, 2D materials\, nanocomposite\, energy storage materials and 3D printing. He is the Benjamin M. and Mary Greenwood Anderson professor of Engineering at Rice University and the Founding Chair of the Department of Materials Science and NanoEngineering. He is a recipient of several awards\, such as the Spiers Memorial Award\, the MRS medal\, the Alexander von Humboldt-Helmoltz Senior Award\, and the Lifetime Nanotechnology Award from the Houston Technology Center. He received Docteur Honoris Causa from the Universite Catholique de of Louvain and distinguished alumni recognition from his Alma Mater\, Banaras Hindu University\, and the Materials Science department at Northwestern University. \nJoin the insightful session and hear from the expert!
