On Dec. 4th, 2014, Associate professor Qingshan Zhang, Faculty of Environmental Sciences of Australia Griffith University visited Jiangsu University and delivered lecture named “Application of hydrogenated nanocrystalline materials in energy conversion and storage”.
　　In Prof. Zhang’s report, he detailed introduced the research of nanometer titanium dioxide sensors and photoelectric chemical cell and access to a large number of commercialization patent and products. On the basis of this research, the successful implementation of the hydrogenation is a series of nanomaterial preparation. Hydrogenation processing method can introduce the oxygen vacancy in the crystal lattice, leading to a better photoelectrochemical properties and stability. After the report, Prof. Zhang discussed with the professors and students of Jiangsu University.
　　Prof. Zhang is the vice chairman of Australian Queensland Chinese Scientists and Engineers Association. He is famous in the TiO2 electrode preparation and photoelectrocatalysis, especially in the water line monitoring and the photoelectrochemical COD analysis instrument development. He has published more than 90 papers in journals such as JACS, Nano Energy, Nano Research, Analytical Chemistry, Journal of catalysis, Environmental Science and Technology, langmuir, Chemical Communications. Prof. Zhang obtained 5 international patents.
