Self-cleaning Coatings (eBook)

Junhui He is a professor, Head of Functional Nanomaterials Laboratory and Director of Centre for Micro/Nanomaterials and Technology at Technical Institute of Physics and Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). He received his B. Sc. from National University of Defence Technology and his Ph. D. degree under Prof. E. Wang from Institute of Photographic Chemistry, CAS. He then spent two years as a postdoctoral fellow with Prof. N. S. Allen in Manchester Polytechnic and over four years as a STA fellow and FRS researcher with Prof. T. Kunitake at Frontier Research System (FRS), RIKEN. He returned as part of the Hundred Talents Program. His research interests involve functional nanomaterials, biomimetic materials, thin films, smart surfaces, and their energy and environmental applications. He has so far co-authored over 200 peer-reviewed scientific papers and filed nearly 50 patents. He also serves as Managing Editor of International Journal of Nanoscience.
