1. Hierarchical structural correlation in materials in liquid crystalline states（谢铃木) 晓晨博士）
内容摘要：
       This presentation mainly presents how local (microscopic and mesoscopic) static/dynamic liquid crystalline (LC) structures would modify the macroscopic LC behaviors, specifically taking note of the characteristics of electrical, optical and mechanical features. Contrary to the preceding basic studies giving connections between the phase structures (macroscopic) and phase behaviors in the field of soft matters, the present concerns provide a unique bridge to filling the gap between nano/mesoscaled small objects and macroscopic large worlds.
       Despite of its importance, it has drawn little attention until now. It is the significance of this presentation that comprehensive local LC structures with different symmetries and architectures than that in the bulk, serving as external fields, can induce (i) the surface transition in LCs, (ii) reorientation structure transition and (iii) anomalously large bend elastic constant and faster electro-optic response in LCs. On the day of the interview, as well as the aforementioned introduction, I will also introduce novel physics developed recently on topology of soft matters (unpublished), and I will present how the physics will help researchers to realize new phenomena/functionalities such as pattern formation in both static/dynamic manners, etc.

2. Janus Bottlebrush Block Copolymers : A Universal Strategy Enabling Access to Ultra-Small Feature Size Phase Separation （郭子豪博士）
内容摘要：
       The phase separation of block copolymers (BCPs) has been widely investigated in past few decades, not only because of fundamental science interests but also its broad applications. One key challenge that still remains is achieving ultra-small feature size phase separation (sub-5 nm or even sub-3 nm), which is highly desirable to the microelectronics industry. One approach is to make a high χ-low N diblock copolymer. Due to strong immiscibility of two polymer components (high χ), these dibock copolymers are still phase separated even at low N, allowing for small feature size phase separation behavior in the bulk state. However, in order to obtain a high χ-low N diblock copolymer, new polymer structures need to be designed (usually involving multi-step synthesis), making this approach impractical. Herein, we report a universal strategy to access ultra-small feature size phase separation by using Janus bottlebrush copolymers (BBCPs). A series of branched macromonomers (BMMs) with different polymer combinations were polymerized by ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) to afford Janus BBCPs. These Janus BBCPs showed a very strong tendency to phase separate, compared to the corresponding BMMs. Different polymer combinations were applied including polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), poly(lactic acid) (PLA), polystyrene (PS), poly(tert-butyl acrylate) (PtBA), and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG). The simple synthetic procedure and incorporation of readily accessible polymers lend wide applicability to this method. Ultra-small feature size phase separation (with the feature size as small as 2.81 nm) was demonstrated by a PDMS-branch-PLA Janus BBCP.

3. Advancing the Applications of Polymer-Nanoparticle Hybrid Materials in Electronics by Molecular Design and Processing Manipulation (张鹏博士)
内容摘要：
       New materials with tailored properties play a key role for the further development of advanced electronics. In-depth understandings of the structure, structure formation process, structural evolvement mechanism is vital for tailoring materials’ property with structural manipulation. In this presentation, I will introduce our studies about towards a more fundamental understanding of the hybrid materials and structure with in situ and in operando X-ray scattering studies. Three material systems with polymer/hybrid filler, conductive polymer/Au nanorod hybrid, and hybrid polymer electrolytes will be discussed. We study their structure formation process and structural evolvement mechanism with advanced X-ray scattering, and with new data analysis toolkits.

4. Multiscale Physics and Modeling of Complex fluids (边鑫博士）
内容摘要：
       Multiscale Physics is ubiquitous in soft complex fluids. To understand and exploit such phenomena, we have adopted a computational approach with an emphasis on high performance computing, and it is complemented by semi-analytical approaches. In particular we model soft materials at individual scales, such as particulate and colloidal multiphase suspension flows, and study the dynamics and rheology of such non-Newtonian fluid materials. This is a top-down perspective and thermal fluctuations differential whether it is a macroscopic or mesoscopic deion. We also consider a bottom-up perspective by systematic coarse-graining (CG) model system with atomic details into models with much reduced degrees of freedom. One of CG strategies follows the framework of Mori-Zwanzig projection formalism from non-equilibrium statistical mechanics. The nice outcome are not only the static, but also the dynamic properties of the detailed model can be reproduced by the CG model. Furthermore, we also develop and analyze concurrent coupling strategies to simulate two or multiple models at different scales on the fly. To facilitate and popularize the coupling methodology development, we have further released two high performance software packages. Along the different research lines described above, we show various applications in soft matter resulted related to the efforts of modeling and algorithm developments.

5. 新型纤维素复合材料的构筑和应用研究（史星伟博士）
内容摘要：
       Cellulose is the most abundant organic polymer on earth. As it is a widely available, degradable, and renewable resource, there has been tremendous interest in developing renewable materials based on cellulose in many fields.  However, due to the strong inter- and intra-hydrogen bonding interactions of cellulose, which is very difficult to be dissolved and processed. If cellulose can be dissolved by a simple and environmentally friendly way, it will provide more options for the development and design of cellulose functional materials.  NaOH/urea aqueous solution is a green new solvent system, can quickly dissolve cellulose at low temperature. Additionally, we found that at low temperatures, the insoluble conductive polymer polyaniline can also be dissolved in NaOH/urea cellulose solvent system to form a homogeneous solution. The Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) is a unique instrument that has the characteristics of a high resolution SEM, a surface profiler, and a probe station. By AFM technique, we studied the interfacial interaction force among sand/clay particles, bitumen/emulsion drops and liner before and after failure in various environmental conditions.  It is better that the above accumulated experiences and AFM technique will contribute to the development and utilization of natural polymer materials.

6. Structuring liquids with nanoparticle surfactants (黄才利博士)
内容摘要：
       液体的结构化控制在软物质科学与工程领域具有极其重大的应用前景,例如双连续相液体的制备、新型载药胶囊、全液体分离体系、新型催化体系、能源转化、增材制造以及非平衡化学体系。调控液体形貌可以通过在两相不相容的液体界面组装胶体粒子来实现。然而,针对特定的两相液体体系，这种方法需要专一地对胶体粒子表面进行修饰。相比于该传统方法,研究者用分别溶于（或者分散）水、油两相并具有相互作用的纳米粒子和端基功能化的高分子通过自组装的方式在油水界面形成单层的纳米粒子膜,称之为纳米粒子表面活性剂。通过纳米粒子表面活性剂在界面的组装以及进一步的拥挤行为能稳定外场作用剪切下产生的非平衡太液滴。纳米粒子表面活性剂两部分的可调节性展现出了对其组装过程和拥挤行为的时间和空间多重动力学行为的可调控性。改变纳米粒子和高分子链配体两者的相互作用参数，便可制备出双连续相结构的乳液凝胶（bijels）。该方法制备出的bijels相结构尺寸达到了300nm，与传统方法报道的最小结果相比降低了整整一个数量级；并且简单的剪切方法,避开了传统方法的种种缺陷,例如纳米粒子的繁琐修饰过程和体系复杂的旋节分解过程,以及体系中的溶剂、纳米粒子和端基功能化的高分子都可以一般化。
