Nanoarchitectonics of carbon nanomaterials. This project aims to develop a generic nanoarchitectonic method to create functional macroscopic carbon architectures using carbon nanomaterials. The project will manipulate the interactions among individual nanostructures by combining bottom-up synthesis with macroscopic wet spinning/knitting or three-dimensional printing assembly processes, leading to functionalities that contrast strongly with conventional nanotechnology.

This project aims to develop a generic nanoarchitectonic method to create functional macroscopic carbon architectures using carbon nanomaterials. The project will manipulate the interactions among individual nanostructures by combining bottom-up synthesis with macroscopic wet spinning/knitting or three-dimensional printing assembly processes, leading to functionalities that contrast strongly with conventional nanotechnology. It will demonstrate the technical feasibility of fabric supercapacitors, wearable strain/moisture sensors and carbon membranes. This project is expected to move the fundamental research of nanomaterials to advanced manufacturing techniques.Read moreRead less
