Hongjie Dai

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hongjie Dai (born May 2, 1966 in Shaoyang , People's Republic of China ) is a Chinese- American physical chemist and nanoscientist at Stanford University . Dai is considered a pioneer of nanosciences, certain applications of nanotechnology are based on his work.

Dai acquired in 1989 at the Tsinghua University in Beijing a Bachelor in Physics , 1991 at the Columbia University in New York City a Master in applied science and in 1994 Charles M. Lieber at Harvard University in Cambridge , Massachusetts , a Ph.D. in physical chemistry . He worked as a postdoctoral fellow at Harvard University and Rice University in Houston , Texas .

In 1997 Dai received a first professorship (assistant professor) for chemistry at Stanford University in Stanford , California , in 2002 he became an associate professor , in 2006 he was given a full professorship. Dai has been the JGJackson-CJ Wood Professor of Chemistry at Stanford University since 2007 .

Dai's working group deals with chemical, physical, material science and medical issues in the area of basic research on carbon nanotubes and graphene and their applications in nanoelectronics , nanobiotechnology , nanomedicine , energy storage and catalysis . The focus of the work is on science and technology of new materials . More recent work deals with hybrid materials made of nanocrystals or nanoparticles with nano structures made of carbon .
