He received BS in Analytical Chemistry, and MS and PhD degrees in Polymer Chemistry and Physics at Jilin University under the supervision of Prof. Jiacong Shen. During his PhD study, he spent more than one year at the Institute of Organic Chemistry, University of Mainz, Germany, as a joint-training PhD student under the supervision of Prof. Helmut Ringsdorf. He joined the Department of Chemistry at Jilin University as a lecturer in 1992 and was then promoted to be a professor. He got Changjiang special professorship from Ministry of Education in 1999. He moved to Tsinghua University in late 2003. Currently, he serves as a senior editor of Langmuir, ACS journal, as well as members of editorial advisory board of several journals including Account of Chemical Research, Chemical Communications, Polymer Chemistry, Polymers. He was selected as a member of Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2007. He is vice president of Chinese Chemical Society since 2010. His main scientific interests include supra-amphiphiles, supramolecular polymers, Se-containing polymers, organized Xi Zhang (Chair) molecular films, and single molecule force spectroscopy. Prof. Jian Pei received his B.Sc. and Ph.D. degree in organic chemistry from Peking University, and then moved to Department of Chemistry, National University of Singapore, as a postdoctoral fellow in July, 1995. After two years, he joined in Institute of Materials Research and Engineering in Singapore as a Research Associate. In 1998, he joined the group of Professor A. J. Heeger to study organic semiconducting materials. Then he has stayed in Peking University since 2001. His research interests relate to organic synthesis, supramolecular chemistry, organic semiconductors, and the optoelectronic devices. Jian Pei Professor Jin Zhang received his PhD from Peking University and Lanzhou University in 1997. After a two year postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Leeds, UK, he returned to Peking University where he was appointed Associate Professor (2000) and promoted to Full Professor in 2006. His research focuses on the controlled synthesis and spectroscopic characterization of carbon nano-materials, including: controlling the structure of single-walled carbon nanotubes by controlling the synthesis process; selective synthesis of metallic vs semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes; Raman spectroscopic characterization of single-walled carbon nanotubes and graphene; and the fabrication and applications of large arrays of carbon nanotubes. Dr. Zhang has received the National Science Foundation of China for Distinguished Young Scholars in 2007 and 2nd grade of the State Natural Science Award in 2008 (2nd contributor). Dr. Zhang has published over 130 peer-reviewed journal Jin Zhang articles. And he now is editor of Carbon. Prof. He Tian received his Ph. D. degree in 1989 from East China University of Science & Technology, China. From 1991 to 1993, he stayed in Siegen University as a postdoc supported by Alexander von Humboldt Foundation. In 1999, he was appointed Cheung Kong Distinguished Professor by the Education Ministry of China. His current research interests include the syntheses of novel functional organic dyes and development of interdisciplinary materials science that determines the electronic and optical properties of materials. Prof. Tian has published 328 papers in international journals and been awarded 66 Chinese patents. Now Prof. Tian is Co-Editor of Dyes & Pigments and International Advisory Board Member for Polymer Chemistry and Chemical Science. In 2011, he was selected as a member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. He Tian Wenping Hu is a Professor at the Institute of Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences (ICCAS). He received his Ph.D degree from ICCAS in 1999, then, he worked in Osaka University as a JSPS research fellow (1999-2001), in Stuttgart University as a research fellow of Alexander von Humboldt Foundation (2001-2003). In 2003, he joined in the Basic Research Laboratories, Nippon Telephone and Telegraph (NTTBRL, Japan) and then returned to ICCAS as a full professor. He is focusing on molecular electronics since 1996 and has published more than 240 refereed papers and 3 edited books. He has been awarded as Distinguished Researcher of NTTBRL (2005), the National Distinguished Young Scholar Fund (2007), Excellent Tutor of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (2007, 2008, 2009, 2011), Outstanding one-hundred PhD dissertation advisor (2009), Young Chemist Award of Chinese Chemical Society (CCS) and Royal Society of Chemistry (2010), and CCS-Evonik Chemical Innovation Award (2012) in recognition of his renowned research in the area of organic
