Qingdao, the most beautiful tourist hot spots in China, will attract more attention in 2015. A global event, 2015’ International Graphene Innovation Conference (GRAPCHINA 2015) will be held on October 28-30, 2015 in this beautiful city.
Since 2010, two scientists from the University of Manchester, Prof. Andre Geim and Prof. Konstantin Novoselovcarbon won the Nobel Prize in physics because of discovering graphene, the research progress of graphene materials has attracted tremendous attention.
On October 28-30, at this international event of graphene industry, the 2010 Nobel physics prize winner Sir Andre Geim will contribute a lecture on Beyond Simple Graphene: Van der Waals Heterostructures. The conference with the theme of solutions for commercialization of graphene, will hold many activities on the application fields of graphene, such as parallel symposia, standardization forum, advanced test technology, new production launch, etc. It aims to provide service and also a platform for related domestic and foreign research institutions and enterprises to communicate and cooperate with colleagues from the world, and thus to actively promote international cooperation and development of graphene industry.
Speaker-Andre Geim:
Andre Geim，Regius Professor of Physics; Royal Society Research Professor; Director, Centre for Mesoscience & Nanotechnology, University of Manchester. In 1987, achieved PhD from the Institute of Solid State Physics, Chernogolovka, Russia. After graduation, continued to have been worked for 3 years as Research Scientist at the Institute for Microelectronics Technology, Chernogolovka. In 1994, as Associate Professor, University of Nijmegen, Netherlands and in 2001, as Professor of Physics, University of Manchester, UK.
Among Geim's research career, published over 200 peer-refereed research papers, including >20 in Science and Nature. More than 60 of the papers are cited >100 times, with 15 cited >1,000 times each, and two cited >10,000 times.
So far, Geim has achieved kinds of awards because of Geim's excellent research. Those awards included Mott Prize in 2007, EuroPhysics Prize in 2008, Körber Prize in 2009, John Carty Award from the US National Academy in 2010, Niels Bohr Medal in 2011, Copley Medal in 2013. On October 5, 2010, The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences announced Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov were awarded Noble Prize in Physics for “ground breaking experiments regarding the two-dimensional material graphene”.
