Biography: Dr. Tingkai Zhao is currently working as a full professor in School of Materials Science & Engineering of Northwestern Polytechnical University (NPU, China), and a director of NPU-NCP Joint International Research Center on Advanced Nanomaterials & Defects Engineering, and a director of Shaanxi Engineering Laboratory for Graphene New Carbon Materials & Applications and a Fellow of the International Association of Advanced Materials (IAAM fellow, Sweden) & IAAM Scientist Award. As visiting scholar he has visited Northwestern University (Evanston, USA) & University of Oxford (Oxford, UK) & King’s College London (London, UK). The research topics mainly focused on the simulation, synthesis, structure and performance of carbon nanotubes, graphene, borophene, expanded graphite, 2D nanomaterials, MXene, MBene and their composites, and the applications in energy conversion (supercapacitor, Li-ion batteries, solar cell), EMI Shielding & EMW absorption, smart device & biosensors (microneedle electrodes, e-skins, HAP, photosensitizer).
Prof. Zhao has developed near 90 Postdocs fellows, PhD & Master students, and published 11 books, 20 Chinese Invention patents and more than 200 academic articles on SCI journals, and also obtained more than 20 research funds & 30 Awards and Honors such as the first prize of Shaanxi Science and Technology Awards in 2013 etc, and his research achievements have been reported on the Chinese newspaper of China Science Daily 5 times. He is a journal Editor-In-Chief of MCMS. From 2019, Zhao has organized GANDE & GNN or CMSE international conferences as general chair in every year, and also been elected as a executive director of Xi’an Society of Nano Science & Technology and Expert of the Science and Technology Think-Tank of Xi'an Association for Science and Technology.
