題目：The Emergence of the Flatlands: Synthesis, Characterization and Application of Two-Dimensional Materials

報告人：Jun Lou (Department of Materials Science and NanoEngineering, Rice University)

時間：2018年6月18日（星期一） 上午10:00

報告摘要：
Two-dimensional (2D) materials, such as Graphene, h-BN and MoS2, are promising candidates in a number of advanced functional and structural applications, owing to their exceptional electrical, thermal and mechanical properties. In this talk, we first discuss the synthesis of high quality 2D materials and related heterostructures, with our current understanding of some underlying mechanisms. Next, we will report the electrical, opto-electrical and mechanical characterizations of the synthesized 2D materials, with an emphasis on the effect of defects on relevant properties. Finally, we will demonstrate some potential applications of selected 2D materials including using h-BN as high-performance oxidation resistant and anti-corrosion coatings, and 2D catalyst for hydrogen evolution reactions.

個人簡介：
Prof. Jun Lou is the Editor-in-Chief of Materials Today, the Elsevier flagship journal covering original research and reviews in the broader materials science community. He obtained B.E. and M.S. degrees in Materials Science and Engineering from Tsinghua University and Ohio State University, respectively, and his Ph.D. degree in Materiasls Science from Princeton University. After a brief postdoc at Brown University he joined Rice University, and directs the Nanomaterials, Nanomechanics and Nanodevices Lab (N3L). He is currently a full professor and the associate chair of the Department of Materials Science and NanoEngineering. Prof. Lou has extensive experience in the synthesis and design of 2D materials beyond Graphene and other nanomaterials; mechanical and multi-physics characterization, and fabrication of advanced material systems and devices. He currently serves as the site director for the NSF industry university collaborative research center (IUCRC) of Atomically Thin Multifunctional Coatings (ATOMIC), exploring potential applications of 2D materials in different industries with commercial partners.

題目：Materials Today Publishing Seminar

報告人：Jun Lou, Editor in Chief, Materials Today
        Stewart Bland, Publisher, Materials Today

時間：2018年6月18日（星期一）上午10:30

報告摘要：
In this session we will discuss the publishing landscape, including the varied roles of Authors, Editors, Referees, and Publishers in connecting communities. We'll take a look at research trends from a publishing perspective, and together will explore new and existing publishing issues; including ethics, article sharing, journal and article metrics, open access, article transfer, novel article formats, data sharing, and other essentials. We will also discuss best practices for publication in high impact journals such as Materials Today, including journal selection, article style & structure and article submission.
